Lyrics of Cry To Heaven by Elton John
verse
I found a black beret on the street today
It was lying in the gutter all torn
There's a white flag flying on a tall building
But the kids just watch the storm
verse
Their dirty faces pressed on the windows
Shattered glass before their eyes
There's a mad dog barking in a burned out subway
Where the sniper sleeps at night
chorus
No birthday songs to sing again
Just bricks and stones to give them
Wrap them up in your father's flags
And let them cry to heaven
chorus
No birthday songs to sing again
Just bricks and stones to give them
Wrap them up in your father's flags
And let them cry to heaven
verse
There are many graves by a cold lake
As the beds where your babies are born
And your rag doll sits with a permanent grin
But the kids just watch the storm
verse
I saw a black cat tease a white mouse
Until he killed it with his claws
Seems a lot of countries do the same thing
Before they go to war
chorus
No birthday songs to sing again
Just bricks and stones to give them
Wrap them up in your father's flags
And let them cry to heaven
chorus
Oh, no birthday songs to sing again
Just bricks and stones to give them
Oh, wrap them up in your father's flags
And let them cry to heaven
outro
Let them cry to heaven
Let them cry to heaven
Let them cry to heaven
Writer(s): Bernie Taupin, Elton John
