I heard her cry at night, I heard him slam the door
There was a screech of tires, but he'll be back for sure
Now through my apartment wall
Well I can hear the sweet tears startin' 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 the logical thing
I left it for awhile, I let him hang up and redial
And 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
I really feel for you and what you're going through
And this sad situation, it's all part of this sentimental education
This is a tale of woe, you've heard it all before
There's nothing I can say to ever ease the pain
But still I picked up that telephone (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
Cry, baby, wash out your heart
Hang your life out to dry and make a new start
Ooh, cry, baby, wash out your heart
Hang your life out to dry and make a new start
Cry, baby...
