When Susannah Cries

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

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

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 1AM
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 love her

now it's all she has
