Dancing With Tears In My Eyes Lyrics by Ruth Etting

Love Me or Leave Me

1930

Those who dance and romance while they dance
They seem so happy and gay
Though they sing while they swing and they sway
Somehow I can't feel that way
I've been dancing with tears in my eyes
'Cause the boy in my arms wasn't you
Dancing with somebody new
When it's you that my heart's calling to
Trying to smile once in a while
But I found that so hard to do
I've been dancing with tears in my eyes
'Cause the boy in my arms wasn't you
Dancing with tears in my eyes
'Cause the boy in my arms wasn't you
Dancing with somebody new
When it's you that my heart's calling to
Trying to smile once in a while
But I found that so hard to do
I've been dancing with tears in my eyes
'Cause the boy in my arms wasn't you
