Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hoo, hoo, yeah
Ooh
Ho, well
[Verse 2]
Two years since you walked away from me
Since all of our scattered dreams were just thrown away
I'm finally gettin' back to what I used to be
Shared my pain with my family
Think I'm on my way
[Verse 3]
I can sleep at night, I don't reach for you when I wake up, no
But it's taken some time, yeah
I can live my life without prayin' that we could make up
I'm movin' on, I'm feelin' strong inside, but
[Verse 4]
Sometimes I cry, babe, when I'm all alone
With this heart of mine, ooh
Sometimes I cry, babe, although you've been gone for a long, long time
Ooh, yeah, yeah
[Verse 5]
I heard you're movin' in with someone new
I hope all your dreams come true
And you'll both be happy, yeah
[Verse 6]
Been long enough for me to take a look around
I've met a girl, we've been hangin' out
She's been good for me
[Verse 7]
But when we're makin' love, she don't take me there like you used to
And it hurts when I lie, when I lie, baby
Help me understand how to push you out, forget you and let you go
'Cause, Lord knows, I tried, yeah, but
[Verse 8]
Sometimes I cry, babe, baby, I been hurtin' for a long, long time
Yes, I have, babe
And sometimes I cry, babe, ain't nothin' workin' for this pain of mine
Hoo, hoo
[Verse 9]
I'll just have to fake it
Until I can make it
There's a smile on my face, yeah
But I'm broken inside, yeah
[Verse 10]
Sometimes I cry, when I'm all alone, when I'm all alone
With this heart of mine, yeah
And sometimes I cry, cry, yeah
Although you've been gone for a long, long
For a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long
(Sometimes I cry) Cry
Baby, baby, baby
I can't take it no more, I can't take it
(Sometimes I cry, cry, cry) Girl, come back to me, baby, baby please
Oh, baby, oh, oh
(Sometimes I cry) Cry, cry, I cry, I, babe, oh, baby
(Sometimes I cry) Please come home and wipe the tears from my eyes
Baby, ooh, yeah
Sometimes I cry
