Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain
(Fred Rose)

In the twilight glow I see
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
And only memories remain
And through the ages I'll remember
Blue eyes crying in the rain

someday soon we'll meet up yonder
And we'll walk hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain

I don't often like covers of songs better than the originals, but I think that every song I have heard Eva cover, whether by Paul Simon, Leonard Cohen, whoever, I have always liked Eva's version better. I don't know how she does it (did it) but she's amazing.

Very possibly the best phrasing I have ever heard. Eva was the best.

@wanturlove

I agree. Amazing. Holy Cow.

The 7 people who hit "dislike" ought to have their ears (and their hearts) repossessed.

Many artist have recorded this beautiful song but Eva Cassidy sang it best her voice was glorious.Eva's music could seduce you into forgeting where you are and who you are.Take care ADonovan43

It is brown eyes crying in the rain that I cannot forget.

We both knew it had to be that way eventually, but we knew that what we had together was worth the pain to come..

Je ne regret rien.

Willie, Shania, Elvis, even Hank ALL take second to Eva's version of this special composition, as her version is unique, as she was/is a part of my soul, in my Nana's channel. Songbird, Over the Rainbow and Danny Boy are beyond any comparable vocalist, as she had a great humility to mathch the voice of an angel, which she most certainly had, and we miss you Eva, zt''l, very, very much; Blessings Dear Family and Friends of Eva....

@JohnnyG959 there's a lot of folks that haven't heard her yet....one of the purest voices ever...her arrangements and the styling of her vocals are beyond compare.

Eva!!!

Your Danny Boy is a KILLER!!!!!!
