[Verse 1:]
“Why are you crying”, I asked her gently
Your eyes are closed, swollen from many tears
“I set a table, prepared the way for you” she said
“And you were distracted while intently searched for you”
[Chorus:]
Wisdom cries, through the lies
Let her in, don’t despise her
‘Cause evil things, and the grief it brings
Won’t help you when, famine sings its song
[Verse 2:]
“Why are you crying” she asked me gently
“Take back the years, don’t live in fear, or unrighteous folly ”
“I’ve spent my days, wasting away, ignored your knocking
When you are worth more than finest of gold
Please now don’t leave me.”
[Bridge:]
Would you listen to her, would you listen to her
Would you listen to her, would you listen to her
Would you listen, listen, listen, listen
Would you listen, listen, O listen
Hear her crying
[Ending]
“Why are you crying” please ask her gently
