WEEP THEY WILL
(Carl Fischer / Bill Carey)

as recorded by Frank Sinatra
with Nelson Riddle & his Orchestra
October 17th 1955 Los Angeles


Weep they will,
Will the lads down the street,
When they find that you're promised to me.
weep they will
As their hearts lose a beat
At the thought you'll no longer be free.

Oh, smug am I,
Warm and smug am I
When you're close in my arms just like this.
It's so easy to see
They're jealous of me,
There's so much love they will miss!

Weep they will
At the sound of the news
That we're seen all over the town.
Eyes will fill,
But they will refuse
To believe that you've turned them all down!

I don't blame them,
I don't blame them,
They've lost the sweet victory,
And weep they will,
Oh weep they will,
When they find you're promised to me!

I don't blame them,
I don't blame them,
They've lost the sweet victory.
Oh weep they will,
Oh weep they will,
When they find you're promised to me!
