Lyrics
In the twilight glow I see
Blue eyes crying in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we’d never meet again
Love is like a dying ember
And only memories remain
And through the ages I’ll remember
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Some day when we meet up yonder
We’ll stroll, hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting
Blue eyes crying in the rain
