As Tears Go By

[Chorus]

It is the evening of the day

I sit and watch the children play

Smiling faces I can see

But not for me

I sit and watch as tears go by

[Verse]

My riches can't buy everything

I want to hear the children sing

But all I hear is the sound

Of rain falling on the ground

I sit and watch as tears go by

[Chorus]

It is the evening of the day

I sit and watch the children play

Doing things I used to do

Oh but where are you

I sit and watch as tears go by
