I was all right for a while, I could smile for a while
But I saw you last night, you held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say "Hello"
Aww you wished me well, you couldnâ??t tell

That Iâ??d been cry-i-i-i-ng over you, cry-i-i-i-ng over you
Then you said "so long". left me standing all alone
Alone and crying, crying, crying cry-i-ing
Itâ??s hard to understand but the touch of your hand
Can start me crying

I thought that I was over you but itâ??s tru-ue, so true
I love you even more than I did before but darling what can I do-o-o-o
For you donâ??t love me and Iâ??ll always be

Cry-i-i-i-ng over you, cry-i-i-i-ng over you
Yes, now youâ??re gone and from this moment on
Iâ??ll be crying, crying, crying, cry-i-i-ing
Yeah crying, crying, o-o-o-o-ver you
