A little bit of soap will wash Away the lipstick from my face 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 Mmm, 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 Mmm, mmm, mmm 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 just like All the rest, you flew away Mmm, a little bit of soap will Take away your perfume eventually 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 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
