imagine you. . . imagine me. . . imagine we were strangers.
oh, when i look up and you look down
i can't believe it's happened.
and when i'm miles across the water. . .
and i see children in the street,
that's when i'll ask you to remember who rocked you gently
in your sleep.
don't cry baby, don't cry. . .
you know that i can't stand that all my love's in vain
if you won't calm down.
how can i help
i'm not sure if you understand me
so don't you cry
baby don't you cry.
another world i can't describe
another world of strangers
and now your eyes are open wide
you have your chance don't waste it.
and when i'm miles across the water and
when i'm wishing i was home,
i'll send a postcard from a hotel room
just to remind you where i've gone.
don't cry baby, don't cry,
you know that i can't stand that.
all my love's in vain if you
won't calm down.
how can i help, i'm not sure if you understand me,
so don't you cry baby, don't cry
