Oh, it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me 
I can see that far away look in your eyes 
I can tell by the way you hold me darlin' Oooh 
That it won't be long before it's cryin' time 

Now they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder (fonder) 
And that tears are only rain to make love grow 
Well my love for you could never grow no stronger (stronger) 
If I lived to be a hundred years old 

Oh, it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me 
I can see that far away look in your eyes 
I can tell by the way you hold me darlin'. Yeah now 
That it won't be long before it's cryin' time 

Now you say you've found someone that you love better (better) 
That's the way it's happened every time before 
And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow ('morrow) 
Cryin' time will start when you walk out the door 

Oh, it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me 
I can see that far away look in your eyes 
I can tell by the way you hold me darlin'. Alright now 
That it won't be long before it's cryin' time 
(That it won't be long before it's cryin' time)
