Lyrics

[Intro]
Yo, what's happening?
What you crying for?
Now you know you look to damn good to be cryin'
Come here
Da-da-doo-doo-doo-doo
Holla at a playa
Hey, yeah, yeah
DPG style, ya know, ya know
When I think of our untimely end and everything we could have been, I cry
Baby, I cry
[Verse 1]
Okay, so it's 5 a.m. and I still can't sleep
I took some medicine but it's not working
Someone's clinging to me and it's bittersweet
What?
'Cause he's head over heels but it ain't that deep
Uh-huh, uh-huh
I finally changed my number, got a different pager
Then last Saturday your cousin called to say you're
Tryin' to reach me, probably because you see that I'm with someone new
[Chorus]
Late at night like a little child
What?
Wanderin' 'round alone in my new friend's home
All alone
Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
So that he won't know
I still cry, baby
I cry, baby
Over you and me
Baby, don't cry
[Verse 2]
Sippin' Bailey's cream by the stereo
Yeah
Tryin' to find relief on the radio
Ah, ah, what's up?
I'm suppressin' the tears, but they start to flow
Hahahahahaha
'Cause the next song I hear
Is a song I wrote when we first got together
Early that September
I can't bear to listen
So, I might as well drift
In the kitchen, pour another glass or two and try to forget you, but you
Ya know, ya know
[Chorus]
Late at night like a little child
Ooh
Wanderin' 'round alone in my new friend's home
Wandering around in my new friend's home, my, my
Ah
On my tippy toes
Baby, don't cry
So that he won't know
So that he won't know, I
I still cry, baby
Cry over you
Over you and me
Baby, don't cry
You and me
[Bridge]
Baby, hear me when I say
Let that man be on his way
Don't even waste your time
And worry 'bout how he handle things
That ain't right
Baby, hear me when I say
A playa feelin' good today
You know you're too fly to be cryin'
Don't even waste your time
Watch how I handle things
Watch
Man, you's a fool for this
For this
But on the real, dog, I'm cool with this
We doin' this
D-O-double G-Z-Y
Kiss the girls and make them cry
[Chorus]
Oh, it's late
Late at night like a little child
I'm like a little child
Dry your eyes
Wanderin' 'round alone in my new friend's home
Wanderin' around, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Nah, baby, don't cry
On my tippy toes
Baby, don't cry
So that he won't know
So that he won't know
Dry your eyes
I still cry, baby
I'm up spiraling
Over you and me
Over you and me
Uh
Late at night like a little child
Why is it 5 a.m. and I'm still up spiraling, yeah?
That ain't right
Wanderin' 'round alone in my new friend's home
Walkin' around alone
You know you too fly to be cryin'
On my tippy toes
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
So that he won't know
Dry your eyes
I still cry, baby
I still cry, mm
Over you and me
I don't get no sleep, I'm up all week, can't stop thinkin' of you and me, and everything we used to be, it could have been so perfect, see, I cry
Cry, baby, I, made me, cry, yeah, cry, yeah
Uh, yeah
I cry
I cry
You know, you know, yeah
I cry
I cry, baby, yeah
Uh
Cry, cry
Oh, I gotta get me some sleep, I
Whoo
Cry, cry, baby, yeah
Cry, cry
Cry
Dry your eyes, no, baby, don't cry
Cry, cry, baby, yeah
Cry
Cry, cry
Cry
And cry, baby, yeah
Baby, don't cry
Cry
Cry, cry
On my tippy toes
Cry, cry, baby, yeah
So that he won't know
Cry, cry
I still cry
Cry, baby, and I
You and I, baby
Dry your eyes
Late at night like a little child
I'm like a little child
Wanderin' 'round alone in my new friend's home
Wander 'round alone, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Cry, cry, baby and I
Yeah, MC
Cry
On my tippy toes
On my tippy toes
D-O-double G-Z
So that he won't know
So that he won't know
I still cry, baby
I still cry
Over you and me
Cry, baby, and I
Late at night like a little child
Wanderin' 'round alone in my new friend's home
Cry, cry and cry, baby, yeah
On my tippy toes
I cry
Cry
So that he won't know
Cry
I still cry, baby
Cry
Over you and me
Cry
Cry, baby, and I
Doo, doo-n-doo-doo, doo-doo
Cry
Cry, cry
Doo-doo-doo, doo-n-doo-doo, doo-doo
Cry
Cry, cry, baby, yeah
Doo-doo-doo, doo-n-doo-doo, doo
Cry, cry
Cry
[Outro]
Shoo-doo-doo, doo, doo-doo-doo
Cry, baby, and I
Cry, cry, baby, yeah
Cry, cry
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
Baby, I cry, cry
I still cry
Yeah, cry, baby, yeah
Baby, and I
