Don't Cry Lyrics

Post by Eclipse »

This great GNR's song has 2 lyrics: the original and the alternate. Here are them:
___________________________
1st:

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside
I've been there before
Somethin's changin' inside you
And don't you know
Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper
And give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you
tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had...baby
And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby
And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry, don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight

________________________________
2nd (alternate lyrics)

If we could see tomorrow
What of your plans
No one can live in sorrow
Ask all your friends
Times that you took in stride, their
Back in demand
I was the one who's washing
Blood of your hands
Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

I know the things you wanted
They're not what you have
With all the people talkin'
It's driving you mad
If I was standing by you
How would you feel?
Knowing your love's decided
And all love is real, baby
Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

I thought I could live in your world
As years all went by
With all the voices I've heard
Something has died
And when you're in need of someone
My heart won't deny you
So many seems so lonely
With no one left to cry to baby
And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight, don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight, don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight, baby, maybe, someday
Don't you cry tonight, don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight

I prefer the alternate version. I find it a bit more depressing.

Im afraid I didnt like anything after Appetite For Destruction, the stuff after that just seems so corny and cliched. Appetite however IS one of the greatest rock albums ever!

I prefer the original lyrics... they make more sense to me and I can relate to it more.

I like the alternate lyrics; I think they're more poetic, and yes, more depressing... Great song, either way, though- I've always liked it a lot.
