Cry Softly

(专辑： Gathering - 2017)

Sometimes happy ever after ain't always ever after
You promised me forever then you ran off with the dancer
Now it's good to see you back here but I'm on to greener pastures
And if you've got to cry, cry softly

Cry softly, real quietly
Your tears are unsightly
There's the front door, thanks awfully
If you've got to cry, cry softly

This ain't the first time that you left me; remember Reno, Taos and Tempe?
Remember Carlsbad, El Paso and that second time in Tempe?
Yeah you've pulled a lot of fast ones but this last one is your last one
And if you've gotta cry, cry softly

Cry softly, real quietly
Your tears are unsightly
There's the front door, thanks awfully
If you've got to cry, cry softly

Well heaven needs a hell, liberty a bell
Up 'til now I thought that feeling bad meant things were going well
Now things are going great but honey babe, it's late
So if you gotta cry, cry softly

I admit since you've been gone I've done my share of moving on
There's been a lot of warm embracing, whiskey chasing vodka blondes
Oh honey babe, I'm beat and I need a little sleep
So if you gotta cry, cry softly

Cry softly, real quietly
Your tears are unsightly
There's the front door, thanks awfully
If you've got to cry, cry softly

Cry softly, real quietly
Your tears are unsightly
There's the front door, thanks awfully
If you've got to cry, cry
If you've got to cry, cry
If you've got to cry, cry softly
