I'll dry my eyes
For tonight
No more tears, no more sorrow
And I'll cry again tomorrow night
Because I need you so
Those tears I cry, for you
Are tears of lonliness
On bending knees, I come to you
Because I need you so
Why, why must we break up
Why can't we make up
My heart, my heart is still on fire
Just lately I found, you don't want me 'round
And I, I still need your love
And I'll, I'll dry my eyes
For tonight
And no more, no more tears
And no more sorrow
And I'll cry again tomorrow night
Because I need you so
