Crying And Laughing - Chris De Burgh

Searchlights, rain on the road

Waiting for the airport limousine

Your time in this foreign land

Is nearly over, I’ll never forget how

Last night, after he called

You held me like you’d never let me go

But your eyes are happy now

And you are beautiful, you’re ready to leave me

Homeward, back to your world

Back to the one who is there

Go now, but go in love

For it’s the only way;

And you’ll be crying, laughing

Half a world away

You’ll be crying, laughing

For the love we have

When you go away…

Long ride, holding her hand

Looking all the words we cannot speak

One mile to the boulevard

And the aeroplane that’s waiting to take you

Homeward, back to your land

Back to the one who is there

Go now, but go in love

For it’s the only way

And you’ll be crying, laughing

Half a world away

You’ll be crying, laughing

For the love we have

But you must go

Crying, laughing

Half a world away

You’ll be crying, laughing

Don’t forget me love

When you go away…
