As You Cry

I'm a half-hearted fool

With a heart that's broke in two

A quarter and a kiss

Is all I should be worth to you

I must be the last of my kind

'Cause you treasure me

Despite all the signs

Your love is disappearing

And darling, you shouldn't even try

After every fight

We always wonder what we're fighting for

Mint me up and mark me

Yeah, you stole me

But I am not yours

As you cry, I wanna lie

Say, "I love you so, darling"

Even though I don't

There's no easy way to ease the pain, whoa

Roses and the tulips have withered away

They had their day

So it's time

To say goodnight and goodbye

You're so bright

That you shine right through

All the problems that I always

Try and lay on you

Won't you take me off, darling?

Won't you get some air in this room?

I can't believe

What I cannot hold inside of my hand

Won't let nobody in

Who might decide to mess up the plan

I'd be a liar if I told you

That we would work out

After every fight

We always wonder what we're fighting for

Mint me up and mark me

Yeah, you stole me

But I am not yours

As you cry, I wanna lie

Say, "I love you so, darling"

Even though I don't

There's no easy way to ease the pain, whoa

Roses and the tulips have withered away

They had their day

So it's time

To say goodnight and goodbye

Nobody's singing about you anymore

You thought you heard it?

Well, you must have heard wrong

It's my business

And that's all right

Don't you see that?

As you cry, I wanna lie

Say, "I love you so, darling"

Even though I don't

There's no easy way to ease the pain, whoa

Roses and the tulips have withered away

They had their day

So it's time

To say goodnight and goodbye

Goodbye
