TEARS IN MY HEART
Leonard Whitcup / Powell

as rec by Mildred Bailey w Red Norvo & his Orch  
Sep 22nd 1937 Los Angeles


Tears in my heart,
Oh how my soul cries for you!
I'm just a fool, broken hearted.
Tears in my heart,
what lonely nights I live through,
My empty arms call for you.

Once there were moonbeams
That used to dance around my heart;
You brought the storm clouds,
The lightning flash,
Then the thunder crash.

Oh where can there be
Another love just for me,
To turn all the tears in my heart to joy?
