When an old man pass my way.
 Walking the streets so all alone.
 All because he had no home.

 But the saddest thing I've ever seen,
 Is a tear from a woman's eye.
 A tear from a woman's eye.
 Hmmm

 I saw a man, no shoes on his feet.
 But the saddest thing is to see a woman weep.
 A woman is tender thing.
 To see her cry, a sad, sad thing.

 Nothing touches me deeper inside,
 Than a tear from a woman's eye.
 A tear from a woman's eye.
 Hmmm

 [Instrumental - Humming]

 A woman's tears dropping on her cheek,
 Is like a sound of thunder, that loudly it rings.
 'Cause when I see her cry, I know she hurts inside.

 Yes, the saddest thing I've ever seen.
 Is a tear from a woman's eye.
 A tear from a woman's eye.
 Hmmm

 Sad, sad thing is a tear from a woman's eye.
 A sad, sad thing is to see a woman cry.
 Sad, sad, sad thing is a tear from a woman's eye.
 Sad, sad, sad thing is to see a woman cry
