Oh it's

Cryin' time again
You're gonna leave me
I can see that faraway look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me, darling

Oh babe!

But it won't be long
Before it's cryin' time

Say babe!

Oh, they say that absence makes
The heart grow fonder
(fonder)
And that tears are on their way
To make love grow
(grow)
But my love for you could never
Never, never, never grow no stronger

All right!

(stronger)

If I live to be a hundred
A hundred years old

Oh, oh!

It's cryin' time again
You're gonna leave me

You feel pretty bad

I hope not!

I can see that faraway look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me, darling

Oh, darling!

That it won't be long
Before it's cryin' time...
No it won't be long
Before it's cryin' time...

Barbra Streisand is an Oscar-winning, Tony-winning, Emmy-winning, Golden Globe-winning Broadway legend, film star, movie director and one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time - a staggering amount of accomplishments for someone whose mother insisted she not to go into show business.

By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.

Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
