Lyrics
In the twilight glow I see her
Blue eyes crying in the rain
As we kissed goodbye and parted
I know we’d never meet again
Love is like a dying ember
Only memories remain
Through the ages I’ll remember
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Now my hair has turned to silver
All my life I’ve loved in vain
I can see her star in heaven
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Someday when we meet up yonder
We’ll stroll hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting
Blue eyes crying in the rainDemo Videos
