Time out for tears
Because I'm thinking of you;
Time out for tears,
My darling, now that we're through!

You know that I
Never wanted our plan to end,
And you know that I
Would be willing to try again,
Try again!

Time out for tears,
My heart is yearning for you!
All through the years
Here's what I'll do;

I'm gonna spend my time,
And dance and dine,
Playing with somebody new,
But there'll be time out for tears
Whenever I think of you!

I'm gonna spend my time,
And dance and dine,
Playing with somebody new,
But there'll be time out for tears
Whenever I think of you!
