  F                                          Bb
With tears in my eyes, dear, I begged you to stay
           C                            F
You could not forgive me, so you went away
                                        Bb
I made a mistake, dear, by telling you lies
            C                            F
Now I lay awake, dear, with tears in my eyes


No more to be sweetheart, no more to be friend
Please give me a chance, dear, and Ill make amends
My yesterdays haunt me, my weary heart cries
I just can not go on, dear, with tears in my eyes

If you ever need me, oh please let me know
Wherever you lead me, Iam willing to go
The past is a flower, that withers and dies
Ill wake up tomorrow, with tears in my eyes

With tears in my eyes, dear, I begged you to stay
You couldnot forgive me, so you went away
                                       Bb
I made a mistake, dear, by telling you lies
          C                             F
Now I lay awake, dear, with tears in my eyes
