  First Verse
I tried to forget I was lonesome and blue, I tried not to frown and complain. I tried to forget all the sadness I knew, I tried but it all seemed in vain. When you came a long like the dawn of a day, You drove all the darkness away.

Second Verse
I'll never forget there were clouds in the skies, I tried to forget they were drear. I'll never forget that light in your eyes, Just made all the clouds for your head, The day that my lonely heart said:

Chorus
You made me forget how to cry, little girl A world full of sighs, Put clouds in my eyes I prayed for sunshine, Time and time again; You were the sunshine that follwoed the rain. For I never knew how to smile little girl My heart wouldn't even let me try. But you seemed to be a God send to me, 'Cause you made me forget how to cry.'
