No Reason To Cry

By eric clapton

Where is the sun,
The sun that used to shine on me?
Where has it gone
Or is it just a memory?

I looked through the window,
Staring at the sky,
Waiting for a moment
That always passed me by.

Black summer rain,
Black summer rain,
Black summer rain is falling on me, girl.

Where is the love,
The love i need to set me free?
And how can i escape
This gloom that is swallowing me?

Chorus

Chorus

By dick simms and marcy levy

Last night as i stepped into the stage lights,
I heard the people cry when they saw my face.
There's nothing like our hearts beating in time.
The crowd may inspire, but you give me my strength.

Oh, hungry, i'm hungry, i'm hungry for your sweet smile.
Lonely, i'm lonely, i'm lonely, i need to hold you for a while.

I've been slipping into desperation;
You're the only salvation that the lord designed.
Your absence is controlling my defenses.
My life is senseless without you by my side.

Chorus

Chorus

Loose ladies on the road will drive you crazy.
Every "no" becomes a "maybe", it never takes too long.
Missing you, i don't know what i'm gonna do.
You don't know what i'm going through; everything seems wrong.

Chorus

By bob dylan

You speak to me in sign language,
As i'm eating a sandwich in a small cafe
At a quarter to three.

But i can't respond to your sign language.
You're taking advantage, bringing me down.
Can't you make any sound?

'twas there by the bakery, surrounded by fakery.
This is my story, still i'm still there.
Does she know i still care?

Link wray was playing on a jukebox, i was paying
For the words i was saying, so misunderstood.
He didn't do me no good.

First verse

Second verse

By richard manuel and rick danko

I've told you once, now you should know
The reason that i'm coming down.
There ain't no time to repeat again;
Just need to bring it around.

We had a beautiful thing going,
You couldn't see things my way.
We had a beautiful thing going,
Something just got in our way.

And i told you once that it was rough.
I looked on you as my friend,
Because that did not seem to be good enough,
And now it's time to begin.

We've got a beautiful thing going,
I hope that's the way it will stay.
We've got a beautiful thing going,
Nothing can stand in our way.

Fourth verse

By eric clapton and rick danko

I don't want to be the one to say i'm sorry.
I don't want to be the one to take the blame.
I don't want to be the one to throw it over.
I don't want to be the one to feel ashamed.

I don't want to be the one who thinks of nothing.
I don't want to be the one to tell you what you have seen.
After all this time, well i thought that you were mine.
I just want to be the one who would share this dream.

All our past times should be forgotten.
All our past times should be erased.
I don't care how much it costs;
'cause i don't count the loss
As long as i can see your face again.

You don't have to tell me when you're leaving,
If it's half past one, if it's maybe four.
It makes no difference where you think you're going,
But please remember not to slam the door.

Chorus

Yes, i don't care how much it costs;
You know i don't count the loss
As long as i can see your face again.

(by alfred fields)

They picked me up, put me in the county jail.
They picked me up, put me in the county jail.
They wouldn't let my woman come and post my bail.

Now i'm in prison, i've almost done my time.
Now i'm in prison, i've almost done my time.
They gave me six months, i had to work out nine.

I know my baby, she's gonna jump and shout.
I know my baby, she's gonna jump and shout.
When the train comes in and i come walking out.

Take these stripes from around me, chains from around my legs.
Take these stripes from around me, chains from around my legs.
The stripes don't hurt me; the chains could kill me dead.
