As Tears Go By

It is the evening of the day
I sit and wath the children play
Smiling faces I can see
but not for me
I sit and watch as tears go by
My riches can't buy everything
I long to hear the children sing
But I only hear the sound
of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch as tears go by
(I sit and watch as tears go by)
It is the evening of the day.
I sit and watch the children play
Doing Things I used to do
They think are new.
I sit and watch as tears go by
mmm, mmm, mmm, mmmm....
