Jewel – She Cries


Lyrics : Time passes quickly for our lady of the hour She brushes her long blonde hair From her face only to find a tear But she don’t know why she’s been crying She looks inside herself To maybe find an answer But she’s willingly distracted By the man who like’s her glitter She says, “fool, I ain’t gold.” But she don’t even know she cries cuz she’s so tangled up in lies In her head she plays a game Pretending that she’s not the same lady who is cheating on her husband With a man she hardly even knows She says, “ignorance is bliss.” But when he asks her name She must fumble for an answer She’s been called so many But now she can’t remember So she just makes up another And she don’t even know she cries cuz she’s so tangled up in lies Now the dirty deed is done She heads into the bathroom She washes her hands in the sink And thinks it could clean her conscience If only she could find one And slowly she turns and heads For the door as if this were all a dream She has seen her sweet husband’s face But only like a fleeting glimse Of all those bridges she’s been burning All those bridges she’s been burning And she don’t even know she cries It should come as no surprise Cuz she’s so tangled up in lies

    the beginning sounds like a slower version of “you were meant for me,” the guitar solo.
