Beautiful song, one of my favorites off an amazing album.
Intro: x 4
Verse 1:
A heart out of affection, a night at the masquerade
You won some and you’re lonesome as the spotlight fades
Going forth pretending destination is at hand
When she’s crying just a little, just for me
I’ve seen them set off to the promised land
Escaping from the hurtings they don’t understand
A sense of satisfaction on account of pristine tears
She’s crying just a little more, just like you no oh no no
Chorus:
Why don’t you cry
Cry a little over me
Why don’t you lie
Can’t you tell me that I am
Hard to deny
Can’t you see what I am going through
Cry just a little for me
Oh girl, a little for me
Verse 2:
Afraid to give away what you keep inside
There’s a ghost in your mirror every lonesome night
All those nights are getting colder and your heart’s a frozen wound
Don’t you wonder who’ll be there when you awake yeahhh
Chorus
Guitar Solo/Interlude: Dm Bb C x4
Last Chorus:
Why don’t you cry
Cry a little over me
Why don’t you lie
Can’t you tell me that I am
Hard to deny
Can’t you see what I am going through
Cry just a little for me
Oh cry a little for me
Outro: Dm
