(peak Billboard position # 3 in 1963 ) Words and Music by Bob Merrill and Terry Shand You don't have to be a ba-a-aby to cry All you need is for love to go wrong You don't have to be a ba-a-aby to cry Or to lie awake the wh-o-le ni-i-ght long When you leave me my golden rainbow disappears And you leave me a broken heart that's full of tears These ain't rainbows in my eyes, why should I lie You don't have to be a ba-a-aby to cry When you leave me my golden rainbow disappears And you leave me a broken heart that's full of tears These ain't rainbows in my eyes, why should I lie You don't have to be a ba-a-aby to cry You don't have to be a ba-a-aby to cry You don't have to be a ba-a-aby to cry
