Chorus:
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 knews 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
Chorus
Now I slip the night around her
and I hope she`ll be okay
I just pray someone will find her
and guide her along her way
`cos I`m leaving on the 1 am
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 kmow I always be there
and I feel like such a creep
please take back the love she gave to me
and in time her grief will pass
just tell her that I loved her
now it`s all she has
