A little bit of soap
Will a-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

Mmm, a little bit of soap
Will a-wash away your powder from my chin
But 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-hmm
Have you heard
When love begins to die and leaves someone to cry
Night and day
But like a bird
You left your robin's nest and just like all the rest
You flew away

Mmm, a little bit of soap
A-will take away your perfume eventually
But a little bit of soap
Will never
A-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
Mmm, a little bit of soap will never wash
Away my tears
Mmm, it's gonna never, never, never
A-huh, wash away my tears
Mmm
