Lyrics

[Verse 1]

When Susannah cries

She cries a rainstorm

She cries a river

She cries a hole in the ground

[Verse 2]

She cries for love

She cries a sad song

She cries a shiver

Sometimes she cries for me too

[Verse 3]

And I say I'll never hurt her

But she knows it isn't true

'Cause although I never told her

I think she knows 'bout me and you

[Verse 4]

Now she cries with silent tension

This can't be right

And the downtown special cries along

'Cause I'm leaving tonight

[Verse 5]

When Susannah cries

She cries a rainstorm

She cries a river

She cries a hole in the ground

[Verse 6]

She cries for love

She cries a sad song

She cries a shiver

Sometimes she cries for me too

[Verse 7]

Now I slip the night around her

And I hope she'll be okay

I just pray someone will find her

And guide her on her way

[Verse 8]

'Cause I'm leaving on the 1:00 a.m.

And by soon I'm out of sight

But she'll always be my baby

Though I'm leaving tonight

[Verse 9]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah

[Verse 10]

Every night I hear her talking in her sleep

She says, "You know I'll always be there"

And I feel like such a creep

Please take back the love she gave to me

[Verse 11]

And in time her grief may pass

Just tell her that I loved her

Now it's all

She has

[Verse 12]

Oh-oh

Ooh-ooh

[Verse 13]
