lyrics

I once shared a room with Tony
Then he upped and I never saw him again
And every week that passed
Shot back like mirrored glass
With my reflection crying in the wind
Crying in the wind
Crying in the wind.

It gets so quiet in the evening anymore
The silence rips right through your skin
And the desert at night is lonely
When you know that you're the only
Poor boy crying in the wind
Crying in the wind
Crying in the wind.

I can't remember the last night I slept
I can't remember when my mind was clear
If you think that you left nothing behind
Well, I've got your song right here.

Whenever I ask about Tony
They say he was headed to the last place that I'd been
They say he was screaming like Saint Michael
While the lights of his motorocycle
Faded away, the engines crying in the wind
Crying in the wind
Crying in the wind.
