Let It Ring

(David Barnes)



I lie in bed this lonely bed and suddenly I cry

The night is cold and I'm alone and you're the reason why

I never thought I'd miss someone the way that I miss you

I guess the joke's on me cause I'm the one who said we're through.



You always saved your love for me no matter what the price

And even when you knew you'd lose you made the sacrifice

But I'm the one who always had to have somebody new

I'd laugh and say don't call me now look who's calling who.



But let it ring please, don't answer 'cause I don't know what I'd say

If I heard your voice I might break down and throw my pride away

Just let it ring please, don't answer then at least I know I've tried

And I will be the only one who knows how much I cried.



And I'll still be the only one who knows how much I cried...
