The Sound of Your Cry Lyrics

The clock by the bed is ticking too loud in the quiet night
I lie in the darkness thinking, I must go before it′s light
Before you open up your eyes and you beg me to stay
I'll leave ′cause I can't stand to see you hurt this way

Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry

Though I knew the time was coming and our love would end somehow
I just couldn′t bear to tell you exactly just when or how
I know we can′t go on, that it was wrong to start
But if you wake up crying now, you know you'll break my heart

Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won′t hear the sound of your cry

Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry

Ohhhh, sleep my love as I kiss you, kiss you, kiss you goodbye
Then I won′t hear the sound of your cry

Ohhhh, sleep my love as I kiss you
