Carmen McRae
guess i ll hang my tears out to dry
The torch I carry is handsome
It's worth its heartache in ransom
And when that 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 get myself together
Friends ask me out and I tell them I'm busy
Must get a new alibi
I stay at home and ask myself, Where
is
she?
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
Yes, somebody says, just forget about her
So I gave that treatment a try
And 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
