Lyrics for Song: Cry Myself To Sleep
Lyrics for Album: Story [2004]
The parties over everybody go home,
I'm sorry I'd like to be alone,
Cos every time I see her I have to weep
I'm gonna cry myself to sleep
Threw this party they about to come back
All she wants to do is see me cry
Cos every time I see her I have to weep
I'm gonna cry myself to sleep
Cry y-y-y-y-y
Cry y-y-y-y-y
Did you notice how she danced with every guy but me
She loves to me in misery
I used to be her little buttercup
But now she comes around to break me up
The parties over everybody go home,
I'm sorry I'd like to be alone,
Cos every time I see her I have to weep
I'm gonna cry myself to sleep
Cry y-y-y-y-y
Cry y-y-y-y-y
Did you notice how she danced with every guy but me
She loves to me in misery
I used to be her little buttercup
But now she comes around to break me up
The parties over everybody go home,
I'm sorry 'Id like to be alone,
C'os every time I see her I have to weep
I'm gonna cry myself to sleep
