The first time I saw you cry
The first time I saw you cry
I realised all the pain you held inside
The first time I saw you cry cry

You were sitting by the window
We all stood up each said goodbye
I turned around just to see you one more time
Your head was bowed you were crying

The first time I saw you cry
The first time I saw you cry
I realised all the pain you held inside
The first time I saw you cry

You said you had no fear of dying
That long ago you found peace of mind
You cried for memories so happy and so sad
You cried for all you leave behind.

The first time I saw you cry
The first time I saw you cry
I realised all the pain you held inside
The first time I saw you cry

You are the rock our foundation stone
Upon which we build our selfish lives
Through The loneliness of being strong for everyone
No one ever saw you cry

The first time I saw you cry
The first time I saw you cry
I realised all the pain you held inside
The first time I saw you cry

You were sitting by the window
We all stood up each said goodbye
I turned around to see you one more time
Your head was bowed you were crying

The first time I saw you cry
The first time I saw you cry
I realised all the pain you held inside
The first time I saw you cry

I realised the pain you held inside
The first time I saw you cry
