America - Don't Cry Baby

Album:

Written by Dan Peek, ©1977
Found on Harbor.

Starlight falling through your hair
Sometimes I wonder if you know I'm there
Awake in the morning a smile on your face
The same old feeling that I just can't place

And you say don't cry, baby
You know I'll always be the one who cares
Don't cry, baby
Come closer let me wipe away your tears

A man came in with a violin
He played for me like I've never been
Courted before and forevermore
As the bow touched the strings
He made the whole world sing

Don't cry, baby (Baby, don't you cry)
You know there'll always be someone who cares
Don't cry, baby (Baby, don't you cry)
Come closer let me wipe away your tears

I know I've been wrong
You've had to be strong
I guess I belong to you, my baby (Baby, don't you cry)
You know I'll always be the one who cares
Don't cry baby (Baby, don't you cry)
Come closer let me wipe away your tears

The sound of your voice singing songs in the night
Have taken me far away and mystified
The songs of the lovers brought tears to my eyes
The words that you'd spoken made me realize
