Make Me Cry

Cheryl Cole · Three Words [2009]

If you're trying to hurt me, like I hut you

Then you win

And if you're trying to love me, like I love you

Then we win

And if you're trying to finish what we started, then we'll lose the love

And I don't wanna lose ya



Are you trying to make me cry (7x)

Stop trying cause am dying



I believe in us, and I really do

I can barely take it, can't get over you

If you're trying to lose me then you're going the right way boy

I can't take this shit much more and staring at the door

Start to love me like I love you, treat me good

I give you a lot I love you a lot tell me why I should

If you're trying to hurt me like I hurt you then you win

I can't turn back the clock, take what I got

Give me everything



If you're trying to hurt me, like I hut you

Then you win

And if you're trying to love me, like I love you

Then we win

And if you're trying to finish what we started, then we'll lose the love

And I don't wanna lose ya



Are you trying to make me cry (7x)

Stop trying cause am dying



Its gota stop we argue a lot no matter what we do

Be careful what you're saying because am trying to stay with you

So let's make a future plan, cause this aint the way of living boy

I know that I hurt you bad, boy I know that I hurt you bad

Baby it's time to face it, to know that you want this too

And if you want to save this, then we both know what you can do

Aint no point in looking back, and I know that I love you mad

So quite how you act don't turn your back

Think about what we have



If you're trying to hurt me, like I hut you

Then you win

And if you're trying to love me, like I love you

Then we win

And if you're trying to finish what we started, then we'll lose the love

And I don't wanna lose ya



Are you trying to make me cry (7x)

Stop trying cause am dying



Are you trying to make me cry (7x)

Stop trying cause am dying
