Linda Ronstadt - Don't Cry Now lyrics

written by J.D. Souther If you've ever been taken for money If you've ever gone down with your pride If you've ever stood up for a good friend and lost You know that the river is wide Like a painter who waits for the sunrise With a picture in both of his hands It's like part of your life is already begun With something that you don't understand But don't cry now Oh don't cry now Don't cry now No don't cry now When you're lying alone in the night time And your loneliness turns into fear With the words of your memory failing and falling You're drowning in a river of tears But don't cry now Ooh don't cry now If you've ever thought much about freedom You might find yourself caught in some door With somebody you love more than (incomprehensible to my ears) And you've been weeping but you don't know what for But don't cry now Oh don't cry now Don't cry now Ooh don't cry now Don't cry now Woah don't cry now
