She was a shy girl from the lonely streets She had no job to do, no friends to meet She'd sit in silence in her empty room Dream of her childhood and invented truths And in her mind she'd drift away A secret place to steal away Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes He was a good boy from the other side of town Said he could treat her right, said he could win her 'round Her morning sickness and the kick inside The phantom kisses of the phantom bride And in her mind she'd drift away A secret place to steal away Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the teardrops from your eyes And in her mind she'd drift away A secret place to steal away Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears No more, no more lies Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears No more, no more lies Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes Don't you cry, don't you cry Let me wipe away the tears Let me wipe away the tears
