DID YOU SEE HIM CRY Lyrics

David Surkamp - Douglas Rayburn 

How many times has he waited there 
Beneath the boughs of angel hair 
Woolen coat pulled tight against the wind 
That whipped and chaffed his face 
And left him that much more apart 
From his old dreams that new lovers 
Cannot own or hope to ever know 
What's behind an old man's lonely eyes 

When he's alone and the sun is high 
Children laugh and he'd like to hide 
Days like these seem to hang on 
For so long 
They seem to drag him down 
And leave him that much more apart 
And he wishes someone would invite him home 
To pass the time 
Or to maybe find some time 
Or maybe 

Did you see him cry 

Did you ever watch him pace 
And all the ways he tries to hide his face 
Misplaced in a world not like his own 
And did you ever stop to speak 
Or hear him try to tell about 
How she and he were lovers 
Just like you 
And they were just like you
