Jim Byrnes Lyrics
"If Ever I Cried"

I know you never said you'd be leaving
But your empty bed says you're gone
I know that darkness doth feed upon sorrow
And that a long night has just begun
I can't even see out through my window
The dark shadowed panes hide my view
But I can recall there was once a garden
And that one day I walked there with you

I feel a change in the weather in the distance
I hear a squall I don't really know if I will stay or I'll go
Pretty soon the rain's going to fall
If I ever cried, I don't remember
To my empty heart I must explain how one moment so sweet
On a dark city street made the stars fall down like rain
