Tonight My Heart She Is Crying

(album: If You Need Me - 1963)

Love is a bird that spreads its wings
And flies away
Love is a bird that spreads its wings
And flies away

Tonight my heart will be crying
Tonight my heart will be sad
Tonight the wind will be sighing
For the love that I once had

The moon is there in the sky above
But not the way it was before
My woman's eyes filled with shining love
Cannot see me anymore

Love is a bird that spreads its wings
And flies away
Love is a bird that spreads its wings
And flies away

My woman's heart is like a diamond stone
So very beautiful but cold
My woman's heart is like a diamond stone
So very beautiful but cold

Tonight my heart will be crying
There is no happiness for me
Tonight my dreams will be dying
Just like the ripples on the sea

Love is a bird that spreads its wings
And flies away
Love is a bird that spreads its wings
And flies away

I made the future, I tried to plan
And just when everything seemed right
My woman left me for another man
And now my heart will cry tonight

Love is a bird that spreads its wings
And flies away
Love is a bird that spreads its wings
And flies away...
