April skies are in your eyes
But darling, don't be blue
Don't cry, oh honey, please
Don't be that way

Clouds in the sky
Should never make you feel that way
The rain will bring the violets of May
Tears are in vain, so honey, please
Don't be that way

As long as we see it through
You'll have me, I'll have you
Sweetheart, tomorrow is another day
Don't break my heart, oh honey, please
Don't be that way

Don't cry, oh honey, please
Don't be that way
Clouds in the sky
Should never make you feel that way
The rain will bring the violets of May
Tears in vain, so honey, please
Don't be that way

As long as we will see it through
You'll have me and I'll have you
Sweetheart, tomorrow is another day
Don't break my heart, oh honey, please
Don't be that way

Don't cry
(Don't cry, don't cry)
Oh honey, please
Don't be that way
(Oh honey, please)
(Don't be that way)

Clouds in the sky
(Dig those crazy sky)
Should never make you feel that way
(So don't be that way)

Dig the rain
(Pitter, pitter, pitter, pitter patter)
Bring the violets of May
(Pitter patter of the rain drops)

Tears in vain
(Tears, tears)
So honey, please
Don't be that way
(Don't be that way)

As long as we will see it through
Oh baby, you'll have me and I'll have you
Sweetheart, tomorrow is another day
(Tomorrow is another day)

Don't break my heart
Oh honey, please
Don't be that way
Look here, baby don't cry
Oh honey, please
Don't be that way
Clouds in the sky
Should never make you feel that way

Yeah, don't cry
Honey, please don't be that way
Clouds in the sky
Oh honey, please
Don't be that way
(No, I'll never be that way)
