Crying

I was all right for a while
I could smile for a while
But I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
When you stopped to say hello
You wished me well
You couldn't tell that
I've been crying over you
Crying over you and you said so long
Left me standing all alone
Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying
It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand
Can start me crying
I thought that I was over you
But it's true, so true
I love you even more
Than I did before
But darling, what can I do?
For you don't love me
And I'll always be
Crying over you, crying over you
Yes now you're gone
And from this moment on
I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying
Yeah, crying, crying over you
