In the morning when I walk along
And it's been raining all night
It seems the streets are wet with all the tears that I've cried

When I walk along through autumn leaves
That must have fallen last night
It seems the leaves are all the tears that I cried at night

If he doesn't come back soon
The streets will never be dry
If he doesn't come back - the road-sweeper
Will never clear away my tears

And I know I just won't sleep tonight
I'll watch the rain and hear the wind
Blowing all my tears down to the street
