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.

Oh, I'm lonely

But I only seem to need him when he's not around

Cause he comes up

At the same time that I go down.

Then I give him what he needs

And then he pours it all over me

Everybody, everywhere wants something

What could it be?

That's why (that's why) girls cry

That's why (that's why, that's why) girls cry.

Cause the summer

Brings heat and the winter comes and takes it away

Cause I came to work

But the boy only came to play.

Then he gives me what I need

And then I tell him, "Get over me"

Everybody, everywhere wants someone

Who could it be?

That's why (that's why) girls cry

That's why (that's why, that's why) girls cry.

I don't wanna talk about it

I don't wanna talk about it

Talk and talk and talk and talkin', ooh

Oooh-waa, oooh-waa, oooh-waa

Talk and talk and talk and talkin', ooh

Oooh-waa, oooh-waa, oooh-waa.

Why bite the hand that needs you

Why break the heart that bleeds you

Why give my hand, I don't understand

Why lose a love that almost leads you?

There's a line in a dream

Where the ocean always meets the sky

If I think real fast

I can make it by the end of the night.

Why can't I live my love that way

So perfect in every way

I can't stop this feeling

What could it be?

That's why (that's why, that's why) girls cry

I don't wanna talk about it

That's why (that's why, that's why) girls cry

I don't wanna talk about it.

That's why (that's why, that's why) girls cry

I don't wanna talk about it

That's why (that's why, that's why) girls cry

I don't wanna talk about it.

I don't wanna talk about it

I don't wanna talk about it.
