Crying
Björk · Live Box [2003]
All around the city
Go in and out of
Locomotives
All alone
There's no-one here
And people everywhere
Crying 'cause I need you
Crying I can feel you
Crying 'cause I need you
Crying 'cause I care.
It's a hot day
And i'm dressed lightly
I move carefully
Through the crowd
Here everyone
Is so vulnerable
And i'm as well
There's no-one here
And people everywhere
Crying 'cause I need you
Crying I can feel you
Crying 'cause I need you
Crying 'cause I care
Only if a ship would sail in
Or just someone came
And knocked at my door
Or just, or just something
Crying 'cause I need you
Crying I can feel you
Crying 'cause I need you
Crying 'cause I care
