[Chorus]
Oo, I'm crying
Tears are falling down
I'm crying
The lonely tears of clowns
I'm trying
To wear a smiling face

[Verse One]
It was just yesterday
Things then they felt okay
Now that has all gone
Away

[Chorus]
I'm crying
The only tears of clowns
I'm trying
Trying and rain's falling down
I'm crying
And that's a lonely place

[Verse Two]
If I could hide the pain
If I could stop the rain
Then all my crying
Could be gone
[Interlude]

[Bridge]
Oo, rain
Who will stop the rain
The rain?

[Chorus]
I'm crying
The tears are falling down
I'm trying
The rain still beats the ground
I'm crying
Those lonely tears of clowns

[Outro]
Lonely, lonely tears
Lonely, lonely tears
