Lyrics
I got a letter post marked yesterday
Says nothing is forever, nothing ever stays
Looking deeper, I read between the lines for something to hold onto
For something left behind
Ooh, how could you love me and let me go
When it's this good you know it's cryin' time
Ooh is nothing sacred any more when you're walkin' out the door and it's cryin' time
And I will cry for you
But only until the sky turns blue
All my dreams held so deep inside lay in pieces at my feet my tears I cannot hide
The promises we made the things we thought were real
All seem to fade away except this love I feel
Ooh, and your kisses are sweeter than any wine but you're no longer mine
And it's cryin' time
Ooh, and your kisses are sweeter than any wine but you're no longer mine
And it's cryin' time
And I will cry for you
But only until the sky turns blue
I sit and wait for something I don't know
A point of clarity, a place to call my home
I look for love everywhere outside and fall so many times
With my foolish pride
Ooh, how could I love you and let you go
When it's this good you know it's cryin' time
Ooh is nothing sacred any more when I'm walkin' out the door and it's cryin' time
Ooh, and your kisses are sweeter than any wine but you're no longer mine
You're no longer mine, you're no longer mine
And will you cry for me
Until the sky swallows the sea
Cryin' Time
