Years flew away   I saw her standing there   Our last parking lot   'Cause we didn't have a prayer   Liquid roses trying to confess      Don?t cry that way   Don?t cry that way   Don't cry that way   Little girl I feel so helpless      The city far below   I let a river pour   Our corner room of glass   We had a sad contest   Beneath your skin you found two rivers more      Don?t cry that way   Don?t cry that way   Don't cry that way   Little girl I feel so helpless      Do they know as they fight their way upstream   Have they a reason to know why?   Here we go into the analyzer?s dream   And when we get there do we die?      Hey brother, count the ways that I am blessed   But I am cursed with your image as a child   Silently like chicklets in the wild      Don?t cry that way   Don?t cry that way   Don't cry that way   Little boy I feel so helpless      Don?t cry that way   Don?t cry that way   Don't cry that way   Little boy I feel so helpless
