Lyrics for Let Me Make You Cry A Little Longer

You know by now that I've been passed Through an awful lot of hands And all I have is what is left From ten thousand one night stands Sometimes I feel like I was there When the blues began With this crying guitar holding me Like a woman holds a man Let me make you cry a little longer Let me make you high a little longer Oh, I want to try a little longer Make some woman sigh a little longer At night sometimes I can still feel Every place I've ever been I feel it in my music And it all comes back again You know I've played for city lights And for stars above And every note I ever play I always play for love Let me make you cry a little longer Let me make you high a little longer Oh, I want to try a little longer Make some woman sigh a little longer
