Lyrics
Talk to me softly
Talking softly to ease the situation
There's something in your eyes
Noticing emotion in the person's eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
Encouraging not to show deep sadness
And please don't cry
Requesting not to cry
I know how you feel inside I've
Understanding the internal emotions
I've been there before
Having experienced similar feelings previously
Somethin's changin' inside you
Noticing a change happening within the person
And don't you know
Implying unawareness of their emotional change
Don't you cry tonight
Encouragement not to cry tonight
I still love you, baby
Expressing ongoing love and support
Don't you cry tonight
Reiteration of not crying tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Repeating the plea not to cry tonight
There's a heaven above you, baby
Assuring there's a better place above
And don't you cry tonight
Reassuring not to cry tonight
Give me a whisper
Asking for a quiet expression of feelings
And give me a sigh
Seeking an audible expression of emotions
Give me a kiss before you
Requesting a farewell kiss
Tell me goodbye
Advising not to take the departure too harshly
Don't you take it so hard now
Asking not to feel extremely upset
And please don't take it so bad
Pleading not to take the situation poorly
I'll still be thinkin' of you
Expressing continued thoughts about the person
And the times we had, baby
Recalling fond memories shared together
And don't you cry tonight
Repeated request not to cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Reiteration not to cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Emphasizing the plea not to cry tonight
There's a heaven above you, baby
Reassuring about a better place above
And don't you cry tonight
Reiterating not to cry tonight
And please remember
Reminding of honesty in past actions
That I never lied
Reiterating the truthfulness
Oh and please remember
Recalling own emotions previously
How I felt inside now, honey
Asking to remember the depth of emotions felt
You gotta make it your own way
Encouraging to find their own path
But you'll be alright now, sugar
Assuring that things will improve
You'll feel better tomorrow
Promising a better emotional state in the future
Come the morning light now, baby
Encouraging to wait for a brighter tomorrow
And don't you cry tonight
Reiterating not to cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
Repeated plea not to cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
Emphasizing the request not to cry tonight
There's a heaven above you, baby
Assuring a better place above
And don't you cry
Reiterating not to cry
Don't you ever cry, cry, cry
Strongly advising against crying
Don't you cry tonight
Repeating the plea not to cry tonight
Baby, maybe someday
Expressing a possibility of relief in the future
Don't you cry
Reiterating not to cry
Don't you ever cry, cry cry
Urgently advising against crying
Don't you cry
Emphasizing not to cry tonight
Tonight
Final plea not to cry tonight
