Joni Mitchell — The Crazy Cries of Love

[Verse 1] It was a dark and a stormy night Everyone was at the wing-ding They weren't the wing-ding type So they went up on the train bridge where the weather was howling [Chorus] And oh, oh, my my When that train comes rolling by No paper thin walls, no folks above No one else can hear the crazy cries of love [Verse 2] They were laughing, they were dancing in the rain They knew their love was a strong one When they heard the far-off whistle of a train They were hoping it was going to be a long one [Chorus] 'Cause oh, oh, my my When that train comes rolling by No paper thin walls, no folks above No one else can hear the crazy cries of love [Bridge] In the back booth of an all night café Two dripping raincoats are hanging Outside in the weather The shade on the streetlight is clanging And they smile ear to ear and eye to eye Ice cream is melting on a piece of pie [Refrain] Oh, my my No one else can hear the cries of love [Verse 3] Every kiss was sweet and strong Every touch was totally tandem As the train come a-rumbling along They sang a lover's song of wild abandon [Chorus] And oh, oh, my my When that train comes rolling by No paper thin walls, no folks above No one else can hear the crazy cries of love [Outro] No paper thin walls, no folks above No one else can hear the crazy cries of love
