You Don't Have to Cry Anymore
Running down the years, lost in the shadowsNo one ever promised you the earth beforeSafe in outer space for so long you lingeredStaring at the line that you drew on the floorCome on don't you fade awayLiving on some dream that was yesterdayHoney don't you knowYou don't have to cry anymoreEven if the wolves are howling at the moonOutside your doorEvery minute counts on the straight and narrowYou can see it all with your blinkers onShooting at the stars with your poisoned arrowSafely out of reach of where the stars belongCome on don't you fade awayLiving on some dream that was yesterdayHoney don't you knowYou don't have to cry anymoreEven if the wolves are howling at the moonOutside your doorOh no you've been waiting so long for the timeFor good fortune to come your waySongtexteThere's no second chance when you're oldThere's nothing left to sayAt the centre of the bone is the burning marrowThe blood that's in your veins keep flowing onLonger than it takes for you to arriveWhere only empty hearts can truly surviveYou don't have to go down that wayLearning how to live when you're old and greyCome on don't you knowYou don't have to cry anymoreEven if the wolves are howling at the moonOutside your doorThere's never been an even changeLike this one beforeHoney don't you knowYou don't have to cry anymore
