I Cry Alone

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.

My girl, my girl had a hold on me

So tight, so tight that I could not see

Girl, she had a hold on me, she held so tight that I could not see

My girl, my girl had a hold on me

One day, one day I let her go

It hurt, it hurt so, you'll never know

The day I had to let her go, it hurt so bad that you cannot know

One day, one day I let her go.

At night, at night I cry alone

I weap, I weap 'til the early morn'

At night, I cry alone, I weap all night, til the early morn'

At night, at night I cry alone
