Teardrops fell the night you said 
I love you dear and you were wed
I watched you while you held her hand 
And I bowed my head and cried again

I cried again when I reached home
Then stared your picture all alone
I've thought of things that might have been 
And I bowed my head and cried again

I took your letters from the shelf 
And read aloud just to myself
But just before I reached the end 
And I bowed my head and cried again

I've thought of nights so long ago 
And all the love I wanted so
And then the fate had took a hand 
And I bowed my head and cried again
