I heard someone crying, who though could it be? 
Maybe it was mother, calling out come see.
Maybe it was father, all alone and lost and cold
I heard somone crying, maybe it was me.

I heard someone singing, who though could it be?
Maybe it was Lily, calling out to me
Maybe she’s not gone so far away as I’ve been told
I heard someone singing, maybe it was she

Maybe it was someone I could find and have a cup of tea ‘
Maybe it was someone who could bring the tea and come find me

I heard someone crying, though I can’t say who
Someone in this house, with nothing left to do.
Someone like her father, left alone, his love grown cold
I heard someone crying, maybe it was you

Maybe I was dreaming of a garden growing far below
Maybe I was dreaming of a life I will never know

Someone’s crying, who though could it be?
Someone in this house, that no one seems to see
Someone no one seems to hear, except for me
I heard someone crying, maybe it was me

I heard someone crying, who else would it be?
Surely it was Mary, why can no one see

Crying for her mother, for the like she’s never known

So lost, see her lying in her room
