As Tears Go By (1987 Version)

It is the evening of the day,

I sit and watch the children play.

Smiling faces I can see

But not for me,

I sit and watch as tears go by.

My riches can't buy everything,

I want to hear the children sing.

All I hear is the sound

Of rain falling on the ground,

I sit and watch as tears go by.

It is the evening of the day,

I sit and watch the children play.

Doing things I used to do

They think are new,

I sit and watch as tears go by.

Hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm

Hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm

Hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm,hmm ...
