I heard a song on RFD television last nite.
No more to be sweethearts no more to be friends.
Does this sound familiar to anyone .
Thank you ,

Mary,
It's called "With Tears in my Eyes" and was written, I believe, and certainly sung by the great Hank Williams.
was it this one?
"No more to be sweethearts, no more to be friends,
Just give me a chance, Dear, and I'll make amends,
The past is a flower, that withers and dies,
I just can't go on, Dear, with tears in my eyes"
Further full lyrics available on request.
Best wishes,
Roger

From: Jim Dixon

Found at several places on the Internet:


WITH TEARS IN MY EYES
Paul Howard

With tears in my eyes, dear, I begged you to stay.
You couldn't forgive me, so you went away.
I made a mistake, dear, by tellin' you lies.
Now I lay awake, dear, with tears in my eyes.

No more to be sweetheart, no more to be friend,
Please give me a chance, dear and I'll make amends.
My yesterdays haunt me. My weary heart cries.
I just can't go on, dear, with tears in my eyes.

If you ever need me, oh, please let me know.
Wherever you lead me, I'm willin' to go.
The past is a flower that withers and dies.
I'll wake up tomorrow with tears in my eyes.

[Recorded by Jimmy C Newman, Ernest Tubb, Wesley Tuttle, Hank Williams, Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys, and several others.]
