Does anyone know the words to a song that goes something like this:

Now you've lost your love and the night has no end, Weep away, weary blues, weep away

My transcription from the recording at YouTube:


WEEP AWAY
Words and music by Mitchell Torok.
As sung by Mitchell Torok, 1953.

1. Days before were so bright,
When your heart was so light.
The world you had conquered(?) without fear.
With your lover by your side,
The happy road was wide.
Now he's gone; you're alone, 'cept for tears.

2. Weep away all your blues.
Let the teardrops fall.
Beg on you knees, even pray
You have lost your true love
And now the nights have no end.
Weary tears, worried blues, weep away.

3. Life is hard; days are long.
Solitude does no good.
Can't hide when a broken heart reigns(?)
From the smiles of contentment
And the laugh of a clown
You have fallen to a heartache and pain.

REPEAT 2.
