In the twilight glow I see her
Blue eyes crying in the rain
As we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we'd never meet again
Love is like a dying ember
Only memories remain
Through the ages I'll remember
Blue eyes crying in the rain
(Instrumental Break)
Now my hair has turned to silver
All my life I've loved in vain
I can see her star in Heaven
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Someday 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
