Lyrics
Cry cry darling
That's what I'll do If you should leave me with the blues
Cry cry darling
That's all I do cause you're the one that's in my heart
For me there'll be no moonlight
If ever we should part
Cry cry darling, that's all I do
Cause you're the one that's in my heart
Cry cry darling
My eyes will cry and never dry if you should go
Cry cry darling
When shadows creep I'll just weep all night I know
You know how much I'd miss you
If ever we should part
Cry cry darling
That's all I do cause you're the one that's in my heart
