Lyrics

In the twilight glow I see her Blue eyes crying in the rain As we kissed goodbye and parted I know 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
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
