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
