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 so 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
Don't things I used to do, They think are new
I sit and watch as tears go by.
