Cry For Love

Ooh la, la, la, la —
(la, la, la, la — )
The cry for love is a sound that no one hears
Like a lovers voice forgotten all these years
It’ll wrap itself around you, like a dear old friend
Then drag you down, to a place where loneliness never ends

It’s the cry for love
Echoing through my head
Soft as a mother’s song
Loud enough to wake the dead
Sometimes it goes unnoticed
Like a Whisper in the wind
The cry for love

Calls to me again

Ooh la, la, la, la —
(la, la, la, la — )

You can see it in the faces of the people that you know
As they wander, wondering where to go
And they’re goin’ down for the third time, eyes wide with fear
Lookin’ for something to hold onto, something dear

It’s the cry for love
Echoing through my head
Soft as a mother’s song
Loud enough to wake the dead
Sometimes it goes unnoticed
Like a Whisper in the wind
The cry for love

Calls to me again

And we cry out in pain
But the emptiness remains
And it’s always the same
The cry for love

Oh, oh, oh, oh, wo-oh-oh-oh

La, la, la, la, la, lala

Oh, wo-oh, wo-oh, wo-oh, wo-oh

Sometimes it goes unnoticed
Like a Whisper in the wind
The cry for love
The cry for love
The cry for love

Calls to me again

The cry for love
The cry for love
The cry for love

The cry for love
(The cry for love)
The cry for love
(The cry for love)
The cry for love
(The cry for love)

Ooh la, la, la, la —
(Ooh la, la, la, la —)
Ooh la, la, la, la —
(Ooh la, la, la, la —)

Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ooh la, la, la, la —
(Ooh la, la, la, la —)
Ooh la, la, la, la —
(Ooh la, la, la, la —)
La, lala, la
