Crying Time - Brenda Lee

She was kicking down the fence trying to hide the evidence

That would give her game away

But everything was as clear as day

I knew she had no more to give, she hated everything she did

And I could feel her restless mind

Calling out for love at crying time

All those days that seemed like years

The silence roaring in our ears

Then at night a ticking sound

The timebomb of the life we’d found

I watched her leave, my heart in flames

Fanned by all her other lovers' names

And I could feel her restless mind

Calling out for love at crying time

Whisky, wine and cheap perfumeall those crowded bars

And hotel rooms

Exotic rhythms to embrace

But everywhere is a lonely place

So down and down and down I go

But where I’m going, well I sure don’t know

And I could feel her restless mind

Calling out for love at crying time
