In the twilight glow I see you
Blue eyes cryin’ in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we’d never meet again
Love is like a dying amber
And only memories remain
And through the ages I remember
Blue eyes cryin’ in the rain
Blue eyes cryin’ 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 cryin’ in the rain

Love is like a dying amber
And only memories remain
And through the ages I remember
Blue eyes cryin’ in the rain
Blue eyes cryin’ in the rain
