Don't Cry Now Lyrics - Linda Ronstadt

written by J.D. Souther 

If you've ever been taken for money 

If you've ever gone down with your pride 

If you've ever stood up for a good friend and lost 

You know that the river is wide 

Like a painter who waits for the sunrise 

With a picture in both of his hands 

It's like part of your life is already begun 

With something that you don't understand

But don't cry now 

Oh don't cry now 

Don't cry now 

No don't cry now 

When you're lying alone in the night time 

And your loneliness turns into fear 

With the words of your memory failing and falling 

You're drowning in a river of tears 

But don't cry now 

Ooh don't cry now 

If you've ever thought much about freedom 

You might find yourself caught in some door 

With somebody you love more than (incomprehensible to my ears) 

And you've been weeping but you don't know what for

But don't cry now 

Oh don't cry now 

Don't cry now 

Ooh don't cry now 

Don't cry now 

Woah don't cry now
