Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain By WILLIE NELSON (Cover)
"Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" is a song written by songwriter Fred Rose. Originally performed by Roy Acuff, the song was later recorded by Willie Nelson as part of his 1975 album Red Headed Stranger. Both the song and album would become iconic in country music history, and jump start Nelson's success as a singer and recording artist. (He had thus far been primarily successful as a songwriter for other artists.) (Courtesy of wikipedia)

Lyrics:

In the twilight glow I see her
Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we'd never meet again
Love is like a dying ember
Only memories Remain
And through the ages I remember
Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain

someday when we meet up yonder
we'll stroll hand in hand again
and in the land that knows no parting
blue eyes crying in the rain
