You've Never Seen Me Cry Lyrics - Odessa Tapes - Flatlanders

The windmills and the water tanks all stand on solid ground 

The country mailman mutters as he motors into town 

The sunlight came, the sunlight went, the stars came out to see 

The way I laughed at the way I cried at the way you treated me 

The ocean babe is watered down but these plains are high and dry 

And though you've seen your share of dreams, you've never seen me cry 

The windshield and the radio play sadly through the night 

A crazy blazin' fallin' star just passed me on the right 

Tail lights down the highway fade low and out of sight 

That farmer's dog can only bark but this cold north wind can bite 

The ocean babe is watered down but these plains are high and dry 

And though you've seen your share of dreams, you've never seen me cry 

The windbreaks and the watersheds are growin' old this year 

The moon breaks in a brand new song as I break in a tear 

I've heard that all good things must end, they say what's done is done 

And I guess I should be flyin' cause it's killin' me to run 

The ocean babe is watered down but these plains are high and dry 

And though you've seen your share of dreams, you've never seen me cry
