The torch I carry, is handsome
It's worth its heartache, in ransom
And when the twilight steals
I know how the lady in the harbor feels

When I want rain
I get sunny weather
I'm just as blue as the sky
Since love is gone
Can't pull myself together
Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry

Friends ask me out
I tell them I'm busy
I must get a new alibi
I stay at home
And ask myself who is he
Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry

Dry little tear drops
My little tear drops
Hanging on a stream of dreams
Fly, little memories
My little memories
Remind her of our crazy schemes

Somebody said
Just forget about her
So I gave that treatment a try
Strangely enough
I got along without her
Then one day she passed me right by
Oh well I guess I'll hang my tears out to dry.
