A little bit of soap will wash away
Your lipstick on my face
But a little bit of soap
Will never never never ever erase
The pain in my heart
And my eyes
As I go through the lonely years
A little bit of soap will never wash away my tears
A little bit of soap will wash away
Your powder from my chin
A little bit of soap
Will never never never ever begin
To take away the hurt
That I feel
As I go through the lonely years
A little bit of soap
Will never wash away my tears,
Have you heard when love begins to die
It leaves someone to cry
Night and
Day?
Like a bird, you left your robin's nest
And-a just like all the rest
You flew away
A little bit of soap
Will take away your perfume eventually
But a little bit of soap
Will never wash away the memory
Of your name
In the night
That I call through the lonely years
A little bit of soap
Will never wash away my tears
I'll never lose the memory of your name
In the night
That I call through the lonely years
A little bit of soap will never wash
Away my tears
A little bit of soap-a
Will never wash away my tears
