Ever since you walked out on my heart
Though you hurt me I keep playing the part
Making believe everything's right
Smiling by day baby crying by night
It just ain't right
When I hear my friends missing your name
I can tell them things are still the same
I'll play the clown till they're out of sight
Smiling by day baby crying by night
It just ain't right
I tried to hide the pain but any fool can see
The only one I'm fooling is me
So here I am now praying you're on my knee
Can't we start all over baby please?
'Cause if you was me I won't have to be
Smiling by day baby crying by night
It just ain't right
It just ain't right
It just ain't right no
It just ain't right girl
It just ain't right
It just ain't right
