Lind Espen When Susannah Cries Lyrics

When Susannah Cries Lyrics

When Susannah cries

 she cries a rainstorm

 she cries a river

 she cries a hole in the ground

 

 She cries for love

 she cries a sad song

 she cries a shiver

 sometimes she cries for me too

 

 And I say I'll never hurt her

 but she knows it isn't true

 'cos although I never told her

 I think she knows bout me and you

 now she cries with silent tension

 this can't be right

 and the downtown special cries along

 'cos I'm leaving tonight

 

 Now I slip the night around her

 and I hope she'll be okay

 I just pray someone will find her

 and guide her along her way

 'cos I'm leaving on the 1 am

 by soon I'm out of sight

 but she'll always be my baby

 though I'm leaving tonight

 

 Every night I hear her

 talking in her sleep

 she says "You know I'll always be there"

 and I feel like such a creep

 please take back the love she gave to me

 and in time her grief will pass

 just tell her that I loved her

 now it's all she has
