Did You See Him Cry Lyrics

Did You See Him Cry lyrics

How many times has he waited there 

 Beneath the boughs of angel hair 

 Woolen coat pulled tight against the wind 

 That whipped and chaffed his face 

 And left him that much more apart 

 From his old dreams that new lovers 

 Cannot own or hope to ever know 

 What's behind an old man's lonely eyes 

  

 When he's alone and the sun is high 

 Children laugh and he'd like to hide 

 Days like these seem to hang on 

 For so long 

 They seem to drag him down 

 And leave him that much more apart 

 And he wishes someone would invite him home 

 To pass the time 

 Or to maybe find some time 

 Or maybe 

  

 Did you see him cry 

  

 Did you ever watch him pace 

 And all the ways he tries to hide his face 

 Misplaced in a world not like his own 

 And did you ever stop to speak 

 Or hear him try to tell about 

 How she and he were lovers 

 Just like you 

 And they were just like you
