CRYING (Ella Fitzgerald)
Chemis / Ross
as rec by Ella Fitzgerald w Sonny Burke & his Orch  
Jul 20th 1949 Los Angeles


Crying,
Every night all alone I keep crying,
And each tear is a memory
Of a romance that used to be.

Crying,
There's a smile on my lips, yet I'm crying
For the wonderful days we knew
And the things we used to do.

I tried so hard to forget every moment,
Moments I still can't forget!
I tell my heart it's all over,
But my heart says, "Oh no, not yet!".

Crying,
Every night all alone I keep crying,
For the romance that used to be,
Till the day you come back to me.

Mmm, I tell my heart it's all over,
But my heart says, "Oh no, not yet!".

Oh I'm crying,
Every night all alone I keep crying,
For the romance that used to be,
Till the day you come back to me.
