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 where is he?   Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry      Dry little teardrops hanging on a string of dreams   Fly little memories, my little memories   Remind him pf our crazy schemes      Somebody said just forget about him   So I gave that treatment a try   Strangely enough I got along without him   Then one day he passed me right by   Oh well, I guess I'll hang my tears out to dry
