When susnanah cries she cries a rainstorm
She cries a river she cries a hole in the ground
She cries for love she cries a sad song
She cries a shiver sometimes she creis for me too
And I say I'll never hurt her but she knows it isn't true
'cos although I never told her
I think she knows 'bout me and you
Now she cries with silent tension this can't be right
And the downtown special cries along
'cos I'm leaving tonight.
When susnanah cries she cries a rainstorm
She cries a river she cries a hole in the ground
She cries for love she cries a sad song
She cries a shiver sometimes she creis for me too
Now I slip the night around her and I hope she'll be okay
I just pray someone will find her and guide her on her way
'cos I'm leaving on the 1 am and by soon I'm out of sight
But she'll always be my baby though I'm leaving tonight
Every night I hear her talking in her sleep
She says "you know I'll always be there"
And I feel like such a creep
Please take back the love she gave to me
And in time her grief may pass just tell her that I loved her
Now it's all she has when susannah cries...
