Lyrics and translation Petula Clark - Why Can't I Cry

Why Can't I Cry

Humbly ever I only my thoughts
Crowd the moon
Why can't I cry?
Time passes me by
Cold touch of dawn
Tells me so
Still I can't cry
You promised to love me
And vowed never to leave me
Alone with a broken heart
You treated our love like a game
Tortured my life with the pain
That someday you'll know
Flames in the fire
Can't warm the chill of my gloom
Why can't I cry?
Feel I wanna die
Just how much more can I take?
Still I can't cry
You promised to love me
And vowed never to leave me
Alone with a broken heart
You treated our love like a game
Tortured my life with the pain
That someday you'll know
I'm going to try
All the hours you've been gone
Still I can't cry
Lonely am I
Still I can't cry.

Pourquoi je ne peux pas pleurer

Humbly ever I only my thoughts
Crowd the moon
Why can't I cry?
Time passes me by
Cold touch of dawn
Tells me so
Still I can't cry
You promised to love me
And vowed never to leave me
Alone with a broken heart
You treated our love like a game
Tortured my life with the pain
That someday you'll know
Flames in the fire
Can't warm the chill of my gloom
Why can't I cry?
Feel I wanna die
Just how much more can I take?
Still I can't cry
You promised to love me
And vowed never to leave me
Alone with a broken heart
You treated our love like a game
Tortured my life with the pain
That someday you'll know
I'm going to try
All the hours you've been gone
Still I can't cry
Lonely am I
Still I can't cry.
