When Susannah 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 cries 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
Now I slip the night around her and I hope she'll be okay I just pray someone will find her and guide her along her way 'cos I'm leaving on the 1 am 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 will pass just tell her that I loved her now it's all she has
