lyrics

If you want to hear me cry
just say her name
If you want to see me weep or go insane
Nighttime to sunrise
if you hear a sobbing sound
Here comes tomorrow
so I must be feelin’ down

If you need to hear me cry just say her name
I was not good at goodbye or playing games
Left by the station
as her train pulled out of town
My destination was never written down

Goodnight and goodbye
to all our friends
Dunno what comes next
But I know how it ends

If u wanna hear me weep
Hear that sobbing sound
You’ll know you’re in too deep
When you start to drown

If it’s any consolation
You can say we’re no relation
say we’re no relation anymore

I’ll be getting on my way
right round sundown
there is nothing more to say
it always was your town
Nighttime to sunrise
if you hear a solid sound
Dawn means tomorrow
so I must be feelin’ down
If you wanna hear me cry
If you wanna hear me cry
If you wanna hear me cry
If you wanna hear me cry

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson

supported by 15 fans who also own “If You Want To See Me Cry (Dry Eye Remix)”

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6
