How You Cried Lyrics - Singles - Melanie Doane

Tell me once again how you cried 

The day I went away 

Tell me once again how you prayed 

To keep me safe and sheltered 

From the winds and the ways 

Of a cruel world 

From the sea and the sun 

And the sands of time 

That would keep falling through 

Until I came back to you 

Tell me once again how you cried 

Were you crying 'cause you didn't know 

What would become of us? 

Were you so uncertain of my intentions? 

Looking back I can say 

I shed a few tears of my own 

That's why I need you to tell me, oh 

Tell me how you knew even then 

That we would have our day 

Nothing from before, come between 

To keep us among the lonely 

Ah, tell me once again how you cried 

Were you crying 'cause you didn't know 

What would become of us? 

Were you so uncertain of my intentions? 

Looking back I can say 

I shed a few tears of my own 

That's why I need you to tell me, oh 

Tell me once again how you cried 

The day I went away 

Tell me once again how you prayed 

To keep me safe and sheltered 

From the winds and the ways 

Of a cruel world 

From the sea and the sun 

And the sands of time 

That would keep falling through 

Until I came back to you 

Tell me once again 

Tell me once again 

Tell me once again how you cried
