Well, it seems everything's pretty much of a cryin' shame,
but it won't be when we're alone together again,
singin' about my loneliness,
ain't exactly sheddin' tears, I guess,
but it's a d*** good start when you're standing apart like us.
Well, it takes a lot of tryin', Lord,
it takes a lot of cryin' alone,
and when you had a little hurtin'
and you're glad to know you're certain to be home,
take a little taste of loneliness,
take a lot of lovin', then I guess,
it makes it hard sometimes
when your love is just some dimes in a phone.
Well, it's gonna be a long, long time
'til I see you again,
and I'm not real sure I can even wait until then,
'cause if I wait too long I will know what these tears are for,
and I won't be able to cry-ah-ah-aye no more.
Someday you'll see me satisfied
instead of being sad that I've gone,
Lord, those days would not be hurryin',
and so you sit home worryin' all alone,
dreamin' of how things are gonna be,
passes along the time 'til we
are gonna stand together, hand-in-hand,
to weather the storm.
Well, it's gonna be a long, long time
'til I see you again,
and I'm not real sure I can even wait until then, no,
'cause if I wait too long I will know what these tears are for,
and I won't be able to cry-ah-ah-aye no more.

no, I won't be able to cry-yah-ah-aye no more, oh no, no,
well, I won't be able to cry-ah-ah-aye-ah-ah,
cry-ah-ah-aye no more.
