Tim Buckley - Cripples Cry lyrics

I know we're through But I still can't really believe that we'd fall And though it's sad I still try to hold back my fears But I still call What can I say or do for you? What would you like me to be? Shall I laugh, dance, or sing for you? Cripples cry What can I do? Yes I know that you don't want me anymore I carry tears, incense and fine wines What do you do? But please believe that your love will grow with time Or will heal Although you say you'll never change your mind I'll be here And I'm a torn-down child for you I build my castles in the sky And I've the colors of a clown In the teardrops from my eyes Yes I know that you don't want me anymore I carry tears, incense and fine wines What do you do? I'm on the other side of fear Through my pain I've learned to love And if my actions aren't too clear Remember clowns only cry Yes I know that you don't want me anymore I carry tears, incense and fine wines What do you do? Your dark secrets torture my mind Your lack of love turns me cold And your first lovers you've left behind Oh do you wish to return? Yes I know that you don't want me anymore I carry tears, incense and fine wines What do you do? What can I say or do for you? What would you like me to be? Shall I laugh, dance, or sing for you? Cripples cry What can I do? Yes I know that you don't want me anymore I carry tears, incense and fine wines What do you do?
