Lyrics
THE CRYING WOMAN
Late last night I couldn't sleep
I kept hearing a woman somewhere
Softly crying (((crying)))
I could feel her pain down deep
And I knew her heart was
Slowly dying (((dying)))
I never heard a single word from her
Just the muffled, painful calls in the dark
And I was trying (((trying))) (((trying))) (((trying)))
Chorus
To feel the cold tears falling on my skin
To feel every lonely place she'd ever been
And I could feel a pain so real it tore me from within
I knew how she felt even though I couldn't see
The crying woman was me.
Broken lives can pull us down
To the bottom, where we can drown
From denying (((denying)))
Waking up one day
Just to find a way around
The lying (((lying)))
When it's night and I can't sleep
And I hear the sounds of a woman somewhere
Softly crying (CRYING)
To feel the cold tears falling on my skin
To feel every lonely place she'd ever been
And I could feel a pain so real it tore me from within
I knew how she felt even though I couldn't see
The crying woman was me
