Don't Cry(Alt.Lyrics)

If we could see tomorrow
What of your plans
No one can live in sorrow
Ask all your fiends
Times that you took in stride
They're back in demand
I was the one who's washing blood off your hands

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight

Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

I know the things you wanted
They're not what you have
With all the people talkin'
It's drivin' you mad
If I was standing by you
How would you feel
Knowing your love's decided and all love is real

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight there's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

(guitar solo by Slash)

I thought I could live in your world
As years all went by
With all the voice I've heard
Something has died
And when you're in need of someone my heart won't deny you
So many seem so lonely with no on left to cry to baby

An don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight there's heaven above you baby
An don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight

Don't Cry(Original)

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Somethin's changin' inside you
And don't you know

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper
And give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had...baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

(guitar solo by Slash)

And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

And don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry
Tonight

只有真正的GNR乐迷，才会知道，这首鼎鼎大名的《Don't Cry》，有着2个不同的版本。红色的OriginalVersion版和蓝色的AlternateLyrics版，分别收录在对应颜色封面的《Use Your Illusion》里。

一直以来广为传唱的，是跟MV一致的红色版本。但是今天我重点要推荐是鲜为人知的蓝色版本。除去爱情歌词的外壳，Axl把嗓子压得更低，于是它摇身一变，潜伏在旋律下的另种感伤似乎渐渐浮上水面。

对于《Don't Cry》这首歌，我真的是又爱又恨，可谓爱之深恨之切的典型例证。
作为Geffen唱片公司最畅销的单曲，它的销量和在排行榜上停留的时间（Billboard排行榜上停留147周）都成了摇滚历史上最不可思议的奇迹。大概就是因为如此，它成了给GNR招来最多伪fans的歌曲——于是像某人这种骨子里瞧不起伪饭自认乃真饭的人便因此而对它甚是反感起来。

但却不能停止聆听它，一如不能停止那发自内心的珍爱和感动。

虽然是收录在1991年发行的专辑里，可实际上这首歌早在GNR成立初期便已谱写完毕。1986年的GNR，最原始最感性最纯粹最狂野也最深刻最细腻，而我们的GNR真正的灵魂Izzy把这些揉合在一起，变成了在20年后的今天依然让我们揪紧了领口闭上了双眼一遍又一遍无法停止聆听的旋律。

这是一首听100遍都会有不同感受的歌；
1000个人心里，会有1000种不同感觉的《Don't Cry》。
