And I'm standing on a platform Now I'm staring from a train And all the trees roll back beside but I'm so oblivious To the dark to the light It's all the same You gave me so much and now it's of the earth And it makes me cry (It makes me cry, it makes me cry) It can make me cry And you're standing here beside me In a picture in a frame And your voice could never fade it's so familiar Things you said in my head Every day You gave me so much And now it's of the earth And it makes me cry (It makes me cry, it makes me cry) And it can make me cry You're with me so much Though you're never with me anymore And it makes me cry (It makes me cry, it makes me cry) It can make me cry (Oh it makes me cry, it makes me cry) (Yeah it makes me cry, it can make me cry)
