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
