Oh somewhere the music's playin' soft and low

And a stranger holds the one that I love so

I was blind I couldn't see that you meant the world to me

And like a fool I stood and watched you go

Now I'm crying my heart out over you those blue eyes now they smile at someone new

Ever since you went away I die a little more each day

While I'm crying my heart out over you

[ steel - fiddle ]

Each night I climb the stairs up to my room it seems I hear you whisper in the gloom

I miss your picture on the wall and your footsteps in the hall

While I'm crying my heart out over you

Now I'm crying my heart...
