I Want To Cry

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I want to cry

When I hear your name,

Though time goes by,

I still feel the same!

I want to cry

For dreams we might have shared,

Though I know

You never have cared!

Since you went away,

I've been lonely and blue;

I spend each lonesome day

Just crying for you!

I want to cry,

for what else can I do

When I know

I'll never stop loving you?

Since you've gone away, dear,

I've been so lonesome and blue;

I spend each lonesome day

Just crying for you!

I want to cry,

for what else can I do

When I know

I'll never stop loving you?
