You don't know how I feel
You don't seem to care
If I let you see it through my eyes
You wouldn't see anyone there
It's no wonder I been crying
It's no wonder that I'm blue
My crazy heart was gone and let somebody know
When it's time for me to go
Tired of being lonley
Tired of what you do to me
Hear it raining in my heart
Well I've been lonely before
But I've been so long without sunlight
I can't take another day more
No wonder I been crying
It's no wonder I been blue
My crazy heart can't tell me why
I can't tell you goodbye
Oh no, I'm tired of all this tragedy
I'm giving you back your misery
You better put on a fast one
I think I'm gonna pull through
You better play another fast one
No matter what you do
Put your money in a fast one
I don't wanna hear the blues
Put on another fast one
Trying to forget about you
Well it ain't no wonder I been crying
It's no wonder I been blue
My crazy heart can't tell me why
I can't tell you goodbye
Darling I'm tired of being lonely
Tired of what you put me through
Now you better put on a fast one
If you want me to pull through
You better play another fast one
No matter what you do
Put your money in a fast one
I don't wanna hear the blues
Put on another fast one
Trying to forget about you
