Crying Over Lyrics

Light it up, baby
Light up that fire
I don't know what's going to save me
From the cold now

And these sorrows I'm crying over
And these sorrows I'm crying over

Embrace me
Embrace me with your kind love
It's all I've ever wanted
All I've ever dreamed of

And all of this dreaming
Of silver and gold
Is something to break this
Winter so cold

And these sorrows I'm crying over
And these sorrows I'm crying over

We go straight for the thunder
Straight for the rain
Love leaves a mark and
Love leaves a strain
Back in the saddle
Again and again
Millions of eyes
And none of them friends

You better light it up, baby
You better light up that fire
‘Cause I don't know what's going to save me
From the cold now

And these sorrows I'm crying over
And these sorrows I'm crying over
And these sorrows I'm crying over
Crying over

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
