As Tears Go By lyrics

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 doin' things I used to do they think are new I sit and watch as tears go by la la la la lala la ah la la la la lala la ah [repeat and fade]
