Tears 1930

What a fool I have been
to think you could care
and make all my dreams come true.
My plans just like bubbles
have burst in the air,
but I still have faith in you.

Tears for souvenirs
are all you left me,
mem'ries of a love
you never meant.
I just can't believe
you could forget me,
after all the happy hours
we spent together.
Tears have been my only consolation,
but tears can't mend a broken heart
I must confess.
Let's forgive and forget
turn our tears of regret
once more to tears of happiness.

Tears for souvenirs
are all you left me,
mem'ries of a love
you never meant.
I just can't believe
you could forget me,
after all the happy hours
we spent together.
Tears have been my only consolation,
but tears can't mend a broken heart
I must confess.
Let's forgive and forget
turn our tears of regret
once more to tears of happiness.

Oh! I can't realize
that fate was unkind
you're still in my heart, it seems,
I'm living and hoping
I'll wake up and find
our parting was just in dreams.

Tears for souvenirs
are all you left me,
mem'ries of a love
you never meant.
I just can't believe
you could forget me,
after all the happy hours
we spent together.
Tears have been my only consolation,
but tears can't mend a broken heart
I must confess.
Let's forgive and forget
turn our tears of regret
once more to tears of happiness.

Tears for souvenirs
are all you left me,
mem'ries of a love

I just can't believe
you could forget me,
after all the happy hours
we spent together.
Tears have been my only consolation,
but tears can't mend a broken heart
I must confess.
Let's forgive and forget
turn our tears of regret
once more to tears of happiness.
