She was a shy girl from the lonely street
She had no job to do and no friends to meet
She'd sit in silence in her rented room

Dream of her childhood and invented truths

And in her mind she'd drift away

A secret place to steal away

Don't you cry, don't you cry

Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
Don't you cry, don't you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes


He was a good boy from the upside of town
Said her could treat her right said he could win her round

Her morning sickness and the kick inside
Phantom kisses of the phantom bride


And in her mind she'd drift away
A secret place to steal away


Don't you cry, don't you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
Don't you cry, don't you cry

Let me wipe away the teardrops from your eyes

And in her mind she'd drift away

A secret place to steal away

Don't you cry, don't you cry

Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes
Don't you cry, don't you cry
Let me wipe away the tears, no more, no more lies


Don't you cry, don't you cry
Let me wipe away the tears from your eyes

Don't you cry, don't you cry
Let me wipe away the tears, no more, no more lies
