Teardrops fell the night you said
I love you, dear, then you were wed
I watched you while you held his hand
Then I bowed my head and cried again

I cried again when I reached home
There set your picture all alone
I thought of things that might have been
Then I bowed my head and cried again

I took your letters from the shelf
And I read aloud just to myself
And just before I reached the end
I bowed my head and cried again

I thought of nights so long ago
And of the love I wanted so
And then how fate had took hand
Then I bowed my head and cried again
