Cry softly Lyrics by Jessi Colter

A Country Star Is Born

1970

[Chorus]
Cry softly move slowly
Away from the man standing there
Don't let the people around to see
How much he's made you care
They won't understand why you love such a man
Who takes love and gives only tears
Cry cry softly for the man one hundred years
[Verse]
He was the first to make you see
What lovin' a man to woman could be
His love lifted you so high
And then he left you down
[Chorus]
