HEAR THEM CRY

(written by Kenneth Cope)

 

There’s a cry in the night

As another life begins

Tiny one pleads for love today

But by and by will his cry

Go unheard, turn inside?

Time can change us

 

There’s a girl, lost her world

Life was cruel when she was ten

Broken home, all alone today

But who could tell with all her smiles?

Can wounds concealed by recognized?

Time can save us

 

CHORUS:

Hear them cry the tears they hide

Love means time, hear them cry

 

Eyes are wet by a bed

Where a heartbeat slips away

And all those years are just souvenirs today

The chance is passed, intentions fail

Tomorrow’s gone like yesterday

Time escapes us

 

REPEAT CHORUS

 

Time keeps passing, passing by

Everyone’s crying

Hear them cry

 

REPEAT CHORUS

…Hear them crying

Crying
