[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Caro line, Car
o line
I never could
leave you to s
truggle
Hold the line,
hold the line
I'll be there
on the double
In time, in
time
Everyone does
see trouble
[Chorus]
And you don't
need to know w
hy when you cr
y
You don't need
to know why
You don't need
to know why w
hen you cry
[Verse 2]
Violet's eyes,
Violet plays
Going back hom
e to the Great
Lakes
Where the catt
ail sways
With the lones
ome loon
Riding that tr
ain in late Ju
ne
[Chorus]
With the windo
ws wide by my
side
With the windo
ws wide
With the windo
ws wide by my
side
[Verse 3]
And the cluste
rs fell, like
an empty bell
Meteor shower
at the motel
Where the empt
y space is a s
aving grace
Making good ti
me and doing w
ell
Still the ques
tion sings, li
ke Saturn's ri
ngs
Maybe she know
s and she won'
t tell
[Chorus]
But you don't
need to know w
hy when you cr
y
You don't need
to know why
You don't need
to know why w
hen you cry
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
And I find you
there in your
country flair
Middle of the
river in a law
n chair
With your wrin
kled hands and
your silver h
air
Leaving here s
oon and you kn
ow where
To where the c
attail sways w
ith the loneso
me loon
You'll be ridi
ng that train
in late June
[Chorus]
With the windo
ws wide by you
r side
With the windo
ws wide
With the windo
ws wide by you
r side
You don't need
to know why
You don't need
to know why w
hen you cry
[Instrumental]
