You Are the One to Make Me Cry

Who'll face the tide

And take their chances?

Will fasten the line

To broken branches

Adrift on the ocean in wild winter storms

I have to imagine things to keep myself warm

The night closing in, but not to worry

Told everyone I know, that I was sorry

And I heard them all singing

For comfort and peace

And in my confusion

Yeah, I still believe

You are the one to make me cry

You are the one to take me home

Of all the people in my life

My thoughts keep returning to you

But consciousness is fading fast

Surrounded by signs

That go on living

Make circles in time

A spider web spinning

But I have no illusions

Of where I am now

I'll let this wave take me

And draw me down

You are the one to make me cry

You are the one to take me home

Of all the stories in my life

Only good things return to you

If I could only say the word

If you could hear me cry for help

But I lift my head up to the sky

On the plans that were circling now have gone
