Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dry your eyes, there's no need to cry
I am so sorry but bye, bye, so long
Mother's gotta go now
[Verse 2]
I, I am so sorry to see you cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes, so long
Mother's gotta go now
[Verse 3]
It's been so long
Since you've been gone away
And maybe, when you come back
You'll be home to stay
[Verse 4]
But in the meantime
I'm so lonely and so blue
Why don't you tell me now, tell me now?
What am I gonna do?
[Verse 5]
I, I am so sorry to see you cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes, so long
Mother's gotta go now
[Verse 6]
Dry your eyes
Bye-bye, baby
Dry your eyes
Don't cry, baby...
