She Cries Your Name Lyrics - Singles - Beth Orton

Falling from the western shore to find yourselves alone again 

Wondering where you have been 

Your lonely voice calls across the starlit coast 

Reaching out to be seen 

She cries your name, three times again 

She cries your name, how long can this love remain? 

Cut beneath the surface screen of what we say and what we seem 

Is a trick to be seen 

She keeps cryin' out your name, but her scream sound the same 

How fickle fate can be 

She cries your name, three times the pain 

She cries your name, how long can this love remain? 

Birds that scream for territory can learn to sing euphorically 

Give him time an' he's real 

And there's a wasteland in your soul the burned out trees will leave you cold 

Livin' out an ideal 

She cries your name, three times again 

She cries your name, how long can this love remain? 

She cries your name, twelve times again 

She cries your name, how long can this love remain?
