Guess I'll Hang My Tears out to Dry

Guess I'll Hang My Tears out to Dry

Carmen McRae

Lyrics
The touch 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
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, my little teardrops
Hanging on a string of dreams
Fly little memories, you're my little memories
Remind him of 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 guess I'll hang my tears out to dry
