nobody's crying

Lyrics

he jumps in a taxi, hands for the sky, he's off to slay some demon or dragonfly, he's lookin' at me, that long last time, i'll turn away again and i wave goodbye, in an envelope, inside his coat, is a chain i wore, around my throat, along with, a note i wrote, said "i love you but, i don't even know why", darling, i wish you well, on your way to the wishing well, swinging off those gates of hell, and i can tell how hard you're trying, and just have our secret hope, sometimes all we do is cope, somewhere on the steepest slope, there'll be an endless rope, and nobody's crying, well a couple of long nights turn into a couple of long years, of me walkin' walkin' around, around this trail of tears, where the very loud voices of my own fears, is ringin' and ringin' in my ears, it says that love is long gone, every move i make is all wrong, says you never gave a damn for me, for anything, for anyone, darling, i wish you well, on your way to the wishing well, swinging off those gates of hell, and i can tell how hard you're trying, and just have our secret hope, sometimes all we do is cope, somewhere on the steepest slope, there'll be an endless rope, and nobody's crying, may you dream you are sleepin', in a warm soft bed, and may the voices inside you that fill you with dread, turn the sound of thousands of angels instead, tonight where you might be laying your head, i wish you well, on your way to the wishing well, swinging off of those gates of hell, and i can tell how hard you're trying, and just have our secret hope, sometimes all we do is cope, somewhere on the steepest slope, there'll be an endless rope, and nobody's crying, and nobody's crying
