Skies were gray that rainy day
We parted in the lane;
Was it tears that fell or was it rain?
There we stood as lovers would;
Did parting bring you pain?
Was it tears that fell or was it rain?
I couldn't tell if your eyes were misty,
Or if you felt regret,
I noticed when you kissed me
That both your cheeks were wet.
Till we meet again, my sweet,
That mem'ry will remain.
Was it tears that fell or was it rain?
