I Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry-Dexter Gordon

The torch I carry is handsome It's worth its heartache in ransom Now when that twilight steals I know how the lady in the harbor feels When I want rain, I get sunny weather I'm just as blue, blue as the sky Since love has gone, I can't get myself together Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry My friend ask me out, but I tell them I'm busy I've got to get a new alibi I hang around at home, and ask myself, where is she? Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry Dry little tear drops, my little tear drops Moving on a stream of dreams My little memories, those precious memories Remind me of our crazy schemes Then somebody says, just forget about her But I gave that treatment a try Strangely enough, I got along without her Then one day she passed me right by, oh well I guess I'll hang my tears out to dry
