I cried all night for Sonny

'Til my eyes were dry

'Til the oceans overflowed

And the Red Sea turned blue

I cried all night for Sonny

I heard he was crying, too

I cried all night for Sonny

We shook hands and said goodbye

His face was etched with sorrow

His heart without a hue

I cried all night for Sonny

I heard he was crying, too

When you try and love two people

You can't love either one

'Cause after a while, you'll have to choose

Or else love self denial

I stayed all night with Sonny

Like there'd never be another day

Go on and sleep 'til sunset

And I'll watch over you

I cried all night for Sonny

I know he was crying, too

When you try and love two people

You can't love either one

'Cause after a while, you'll have to choose

Or else love self denial

I stayed all night with Sonny

Like there'd never be another day

Go on and sleep 'til sunset

And I'll watch over you

I cried all night for Sonny

I know he was crying, too
