Cry Love Lyrics

Artist : JOHN HIATT
Album : Walk On
A moment of steel

A dry-eyed house

Did he say goodbye to you

Or did you kick him out

I know you're not afraid

To go alone

But this was a marriage of spirit, flesh, and bone



Now whatcha gonna do

When the planet shifts

Whatcha gonna do

Gonna slit your wrists

Bleed all over the milky way

The stars in your eyes look red today



CHORUS:

Cry love, Cry love

The tears of an angel

The tears of a dove

Spilling all over, your heart from above

Cry Love, Cry Love



The trust of a woman in his hand

But he was a little boy, not a man

You loved him stronger than he could feel

Yeah he was wrapped up in himself like an orange peel

Now whatcha gonna do

With the booze and the blush

Whatcha gonna do

When there's no rush

Cop a little misery

At the corner store

Well' one day that train of pain won't stop no more



REPEAT CHORUS



Throwning up ashes on the floor

If this is a lesson in love

Well what's it for?

The heart will remember

The burning fire

The next time you feel the flame

Of desire



REPEAT CHORUS

REPEAT CHORUS



Cry love, cry love, cry love
