Woke up with Tears in My Eyes
Last night again in sweet dreams I wandered
Back to the days long gone by
When I crossed the wildwood that longed in my childhood
I woke up with tears in my eyes

Chorus:
I walked through the places and looked at the faces
And left for the sweet by and by
But I crossed them backwoods where that old shack stood
I woke up with tears in my eyes

Well some sweet day I'm making a journey
Not telling anyone goodbye
I don't want nobody weeping, weeping though I'm sleeping
Or waking up with tears in their eyes

Last night again in sweet dreams I wandered
Back to the days long gone by
When I crossed the wildwood that longed in my childhood
I woke up with tears in my eyes
