No Reason To Cry

The Go-Betweens · Oceans Apart [2005]

For days we fought across the globe

You bit my tongue on a Lisbon Road

We staggered home to the black hotel

Blew our money at the wishing well

December sun didn't make us sing

Wounds too deep to keep anything



But there's no reason to cry.



Been fifteen years since we last spoke

The wounds have healed on my throat

The autumn sun's a creamy haze

On Fox Hill Green I lose the day



But there's no reason to cry.
