Lyrics
The Sound of Your Cry
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The clock by the bed is ticking
Too loud in the quiet night
I lie in the darkness thinking
I must go before it's light
Before you open up your eyes
And you beg me to stay
I'll leave 'cause I can't stand
To see you hurt this way
Sleep my love
As I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear
The sound of your cry
Though I knew the time was coming
And our love would end somehow
I just couldn't bear to tell you
Exactly just when or how
I know we can't go on
That it was wrong to start
But if you wake up crying now
You know you'll break my heart
Sleep my love
As I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear
The sound of your cry
