Tell me once again how you cried   the day I went away   Tell me once again how you prayed   to keep me safe and sheltered   From the winds and the ways   of a cruel world   From the sea and the sun   and the sands of time   that would keep falling through   until I came back to you   Tell me once again how you cried   Were you crying 'cause you didn't know   what would become of us   Were you so uncertain of my intentions   Looking back I can say   I she'd a few tears of my own   That's why I need you to tell me   Oh...   Tell me how you knew even then   that we would have our day   Nothing from before, come between   to keep us among the lonely   Ah...   Tell me once again how you cried   Were you crying 'cause you didn't know   what would become of us   Were you so uncertain of my intentions   Looking back I can say   I she'd a few tears of my own   That's why I need you to tell me   Oh...   Tell me once again how you cried   the day I went away   Tell me once again how you prayed   to keep me safe and sheltered   From the winds and the ways   of a cruel world   From the sea and the sun   and the sands of time   that would keep falling through   until I came back to you   Tell me once again   Tell me once again   Tell me once again how you cried   Words And Music By Melanie Doane  (P) 1998 Sony Music Entertainment (Canada) Inc.
