Dry your eyes
There's no need to cry
I'm so sorry but
Bye bye, so long
Mother's gotta go now
La la la la la la

I'm so sorry to see you cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes
So long, mother's gotta go now
La la la la la la

It's been so long since
You've been gone away
And maybe when you come back
You'll be home to stay

But in the meantime while
I'm so lonely and so blue
Why don't you tell me now
Tell me now, what am I gonna do

I'm so sorry to see you cry
Wipe those tears from your eyes
So long, mother's gotta go now
La la la la la la

Dry your eyes, bye bye, baby
Dry your eyes, don't cry, baby
