A moment of steel, a dry eyed house

Did he say goodbye to you, or did you kick him out

I know you're not afraid to go alone

But this was a marriage of spirit, flesh and bone



Now what you gonna do when the planets shift

What you gonna do, gonna slit your wrists

Bleed all over the milky way

The stars in your eyes look red today



Chorus:

Cry love, cry love

The tears of an angel

The tears of a dove

Spilling all over

Your heart from above

Cry love, cry love



The trust of a woman in his hand

But he was a little boy, not a man

You loved him stronger than he could feel

But he was wrapped up in himself like an orange peel

Now what you gonna do with the bruise and the blush

What you gonna do when there's no rush

Cop a little misery at the corner store

Well one day that train of pain won't stop no more



(chorus)



Throwing up ashes on the floor

If this is a lesson in love, well what's it for

The heart won't remember the burning fire

The next time you feel the flame of desire



(repeat chorus twice)

Cry love, cry love, cry love
