| She was a shy girl from the lonely streets
|
| She had no job to do, no friends to meet
|
| She’d sit in silence in her empty room
|
| Dream of her childhood and invented truths
|
| And in her mind she’d drift away
|
| A secret place to steal away
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
|
| He was a good boy from the other side of town
|
| Said he could treat her right, said he could win her 'round
|
| Her morning sickness and the kick inside
|
| The phantom kisses of the phantom bride
|
| And in her mind she’d drift away
|
| A secret place to steal away
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the teardrops from your eyes
|
| And in her mind she’d drift away
|
| A secret place to steal away
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears
|
| No more, no more lies
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears
|
| No more, no more lies
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
|
| Don’t you cry, don’t you cry
|
| Let me wipe away the tears
|
| Let me wipe away the tears |
