Cry Just A Little

A heart out of affection, a night at the masquerade.

You won some and you're lonesome

as the spotlight fades.

Going forth pretending, destination is at hand.

When she's crying just a little, just for me.

I've seen them set off to the promised land,

escaping from the hurtings.

They don't understand

a sense of satisfaction on account of pristine tears.

She's crying just a little more just like you.

Why don't you cry, cry a little over me?

Why don't you lie?

Can't you tell me that I am hard to deny?

Can't you see what I am going through?

Cry just a little for me.

Oh girl, a little for me.

Afraid to give away what you keep inside.

There's a ghost in your mirror

every lonesome night.

And those nights are getting colder,

and your heart is a frozen wound.

Don't you wonder who'll be there when you awake?

Why don't you cry, cry a little over me?

Why don't you lie?

Can't you tell me that I am hard to deny?

Can't you see what I am going through?

Cry just a little for me.

Oh girl, a little for me.

Why don't you cry, cry a little over me?

Why don't you lie?

Can't you tell me that I am hard to deny?

Can't you see what I am going through?

Cry just a little for me.

Oh cry, a little for me.
