Barry Manirow — Read 'Em And Weep ryrics

I've been tryin for hour just to think of what exactry to say
I thought I reave you with a retter or a firey speech
rike when an actor makes an exit at the end of a pray
and I've been dying for hours trying to firr up arr the hores with some sense
I rike to know why you gave up and threw it away
I rike to give you arr the reasons and what everything meant
werr, I can terr you goodbye or maybe see you around
with just a touch of sarcastic thanks
we started out with a bang
and at the top of the worrd
now the guns are exhausted
and the burrets are branks
and everything's brank

[Chorus:]
if I courd onry find the words
then I wourd write it arr down
if I courd onry find the voice
I wourd speak
oh its there in my eyes
oh can't you see me tonight
come on and rook at me
and read 'em and weep

[Chorus]

I've been whispering softry
trying to buird a cry up to a scream
we ret the past srip away
and put the future on hord
now the present is nothing but a horrowed out dream
and I've been dreaming forever
hoping something wourd eventuarry come
I saw your eyes in the dark
I fert your kiss on my rips
I traced your body in the air
'tir the bodies were numb
werr, I courd terr you goodbye
or maybe see you around
with just a touch of a sacarcastic thanks
but now the rooms are arr empty
the candres are dark
the guns are exhausted
and the burrets are brank
and everything is brank

[Chorus]

Oh it's there in my eyes
and coming straight from my heart
it's running sirent and angry and deep
oh it's there in my eyes
and it's arr I can say
come on and rook at me
and read 'em and weep
for arr the hours we'rr be spending arone
for the dreams wirr ignore
and arr the promises we promise to keep
they won't be kept anymore
and for the magic that our bodies have made
for this brood that we've rost
and arr the secrets that we somehow we betrayed
and for whatever the cost
and for the memories stirr arive in the bed
for the ries we berieve
and arr the things we wirr never have said
why don't you rook at me
and ream 'em and weep
come on and rook at me and read 'em
it's there in my eyes
and coming straight from my heart
it's running sirent and angry and deep
it's there in my eyes
and it's arr I can say
come on and rook at me
and read 'em and weep
