Don't Cry
When we were young,
And truth was paramount.
We were older then,
And we lived a life without any doubt.
Those memories,
They seem so long ago.

What's become of them?
When you feel like me I want you to know.
Don't cry.
Not alone.
Don't cry,
Tonight, my baby.
Don't cry,
You'll always be loved.
Don't cry,
Tonight.
My baby.
Today I dreamed,
Of friends I had before.
And I wonder why.
The ones who care don't call anymore.
My feelings hurt.
But you know I overcome the pain.
And I'm stronger now,
There can't be a fire unless there's a flame.
Don't cry.
Your not alone.
Don't cry,
Tonight, my baby.
Don't cry.
You'll always be loved.
Don't cry oh...
Limousines and sycophants,
Don't leave me now,
'Cause I'm afraid what you've done to me.
Is now the wolf.
In my bed,
In my head.
In my head.
In my head.
The challenges,
we took were hard enough.
They get harder now.
Even when we think that we've had enough.
Don't feel alone,
'Cause it's I you understand.
I'm your sedative,
Take a piece of me whenever you can.
Don't cry.... you're not alone.
Don't cry.... tonight my baby
Don't cry.... you'll always be loved
Don't cry.... tonight sweet baby
Don't cry... don't cry...
don't cry... don't you cry...
Cry... Don't cry...
'Cause you still be loved
Don't cry
Don't cry tonight
Ohh..
My baby my baby ...
...ba da ba ba da da...
my baby my baby...
ohh.. ...
yeyeyeyeiah... ...yeyeyeyeiah...
My baby....
Don't cry tonight
You'll still be loved

　Seal全名Seal Henry Samuel，于1963年2月19日出生在英国伦敦，他是一名混血儿，父母分别是自尼日利亚人和巴西人。自上世纪90年代以来，Seal一直都是英国最受欢迎的男歌手之一，90年代中期以后，他把灵魂乐，民谣，摇滚，舞曲等不同的风格融入到自己的音乐中去，自成一派，使他不仅在英国保持了强大的号召力，而且还逐步赢得了美国音乐界的认可。

　　Seal并不是一名少年成名的艺术家，在大学毕业获得建筑专业的学位以后，他在伦敦先后找了许多不同的工作，包括电力工程师和皮装设计师等等。而他的音乐历程也是十分曲折的，最初他只是在英国的酒吧内唱歌，后来加入了英国的一支疯克(Funk)乐队Push。80年代中后期，在乐队的亚洲巡回演唱会结束以后，他又加盟了泰国的一支乐队。然而在泰国的日子并不太久，离开泰国并且经过了印度之旅以后，Seal又回到了英国。

　　不久，Seal结识了音乐制作人Adamski，Seal的嗓音和演唱功力很快震动了Adamski。1990年，在Adamski的协助下，Seal发行了一张EP唱片《Killer》，这张专辑很快在英国成为了排行榜冠军，这张EP专辑的成功，为Seal带来了一份自己的合同。他的首张正式专辑《Seal(1991)》在1991年6月11日发行，担任制作人的是曾经为Frankie Goes to Hollywood乐队制作专辑的前the Buggles乐队成员Trevor Horn。这张专辑中诞生了许多首非常优秀的单曲，无论在英国还是在美国都获得了相当大程度的成功，专辑总销量超过了三百万张。在专辑发行之后他又参加了向吉他之神Jimi Hendrix献礼的专辑《Stone Free》的录制。

　　1994年他的第二张专辑继续以“Seal”命名，称作《Seal(1994)》。这是Seal最为成功的专辑，其中的单曲《Kiss From a Rose》不仅入选了电影《永远的蝙蝠侠(Batman Forever)》的原声大碟，更重要的是为他在1995年度第38届格莱美奖中赢得了年度最佳唱片(Record Of The Year)，年度最佳歌曲(Song Of The Year)，最佳流行男歌手(Best Male Pop Vocal Performance)三尊分量十足的奖杯。这也是目前为止，Seal在格来美奖评选中仅有的斩获。而这张专辑也一直是热销的多白金专辑。1998年，Seal又发行了自己的第三张专辑这次他把专辑名字改了，叫做《Human Being》，同样这张专辑也卖出了400多万张。

　　2003年9月9日，Human Being的第四张正式专辑《Seal IV》发行。

因为一个人喜欢一首歌，曾经的，美丽的心情。
