I heard a cry at night I heard him slam the door There was a screech of tyres But he'll be back for sure Now through my apartment wall I can hear her sweet tears starting to fall So cry, baby Wash out your heart Hang your life out to dry And make a new start Then came the telephone ring It was a logical thing I left it for a while I let her hang up and re-dial Then I picked up the telephone And I said: "Don't worry honey No, no, no, no, no, no, you're not alone" So cry, baby Wash out your heart Hang your life out to dry And make a new start It was a tale of woe I'd heard it all before And nothing I could say Would ever ease the pain Still I picked up the telephone And I said: "Don't worry honey No, no, no, no, no, no No, no, no, no, no, no You're not alone" So cry, baby Wash out your heart Hang your life out to dry And make a new start.
