Why do you cry?
Is it the sun?
Did it hurt you?
Is it the rain?
Did it wash your beauty away?
Did the angels forsake you?
Did the night steal your name?
Why do you cry?

Does your heart ache when it beats?
Is it beyond your will to conquer your misery?
Who is to blame for your sadness?
Is it as hard as diamond to tame?
Why wont you let me cure your soreness?
Why does your heart beat without cause?
Why do you always cry?

Gone is the joy you soul once held
A wound that will grow till infinity
Is all that youll ever have...
I wish I can embrace your sorrow as my own,
But my heart belongs to another.
Is this why you cry?
