Crying in Public

Take all my defenses in two words

And throw them away

Tell me, what kind of monster

Have I been today?

But you smile and call me "tough guy"

To the opposite effect

It’s a flower in the gun

And your tough guy’s a wreck

Sorry I'm crying in public this way

I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you

I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train

I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you

Love will be the bridge

Over the sand

Love will be the key

From hand to hand

Like the peach you split open

With two thumbs

I'm the half without a stone

And my heart is a hollow

With a space for your own

(or whatever you want to do with it)

And I’m blaming all beauty upon you

From the birds at my feet

To the breakdancing boys

And their boomboxes' beat, beat, beat

Sorry I'm crying in public this way

I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you

I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train

I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you

Love will be the bridge

Over the sand

Love will be the key

From hand to hand

Each autumn leaf and passing breath

Each antidote to sudden death

And there we are

And who'd've guessed

That there it is, just like that

Forgive me

Sorry I'm crying in public this way

I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you

I'm sorry I'm causing a scene on the train

I'm falling for you, I'm falling for you

Love will be the bridge

Over the sand

Love will be the key

From hand to hand
