Didn't I hear you cry this morning, didn't I feel you weep
Teardrops flowin' down on me, like rivers in my sleep
And in my dream of laughter, you came creepin' with your fears
Telling me your sorrows, in the tracings of your tears
That's a strange way to tell me you love me
When your sorrow is all I can see
If you just want to cry to somebody, don't cry to me, no
Don't cry to me, no
Didn't I hear your voice this morning, didn't you call my name
I heard you whisper softly, but the words were never plain
And in your dream of darkness, I came shinin' like the sun
Waiting for the laughter, but the laughter never comes
CHORUS
Didn't you feel alone this morning, didn't you need a friend
And in your darkest hour, you came runnin' back again
CHORUS
FLUTE SOLO
REFRAIN CHORUS
(Note: Ordinarily, only the top four strings are played throughout the song. The
5th and 6th strings, A and E, are not played and left silent. And, in all chord
forms throughout the song, the D string is played, but not fretted, leaving the
open D string to pedal throughout the song. On the Bb for example, the first
finger is placed on the first fret of the high E string, the little finger on the
third fret of the B string, and the ring finger on the third fret of the G
string. The D is left open. For the C chord that follows, just move the entire
chord form up two frets, which should leave the index finger on the third fret.
The Dm9 is played like an Am, but the middle finger is lifted to leave an open G.)
