Now I Cry

By Bruce Clifford

How did we get to here
Forever it has been clear
Walk to the landing and the sun
You're not the only one
Im the lonely son

Take a dream or two
It's all one can do
Cry as you touch the sky
There was once a you and I
Now I cry

Now I cry when I remember
Now I cry, I should have never surrendered
Now I cry when things are still at night
Now I cry in the darkened light
In this shallow life
You and I
Now I cry

How did we get to here
Forever it has been my dear
Swim to the empty shore
Cry until you can't no more
No more

Now I cry when I remember
Now I cry, I should have never surrendered
Now I cry when things are still at night
Now I cry in the darkened light
In this shallow life
You and I
Why am I so blind
