| I can only cry tonight
|
| I wish I was with her
|
| Yeah, we’d be getting by tonight
|
| Instead I’m laying here by myself, yeah
|
| Just thinking 'bout the way that it felt, yeah
|
| She was there when nobody else
|
| Could make out the words in my mouth
|
| I can only whisper (Only, only whisper)
|
| Now I can only cry tonight
|
| I wish I was with her (Only, only, only)
|
| Yeah, we’d be gettin' by tonight
|
| But here, the poet floats in a well, yeah
|
| My words are soakin', coated in braille, yeah
|
| I look up at everyone else, oh yeah
|
| With everything I wish I could yell
|
| I can only whisper (Only, only whisper)
|
| Now I can only cry tonight
|
| I wish I was with her (Only, only, only)
|
| 'Cause we’d be gettin' by tonight
|
| I can only whisper (Only whisper)
|
| I can only cry tonight (Cry tonight)
|
| If I could only see you now, I would be kissin' you so sweetly
|
| We’d be gettin' by tonight |
