Lyrics for As Tears Go By

It is the evening of the day I sit and watch the children play Smiling faces I can see but not for me I sit and watch as tears go by My riches can't buy everything I want to hear the children sing All I hear is the sound Of rain falling on the ground I sit and watch as tears go by It is the evening of the day I sit and watch the children play Doing things I used to do, they think are new I sit and watch as tears go by
