Tell me why you cried
And why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried
And why you lied to me
.
Well I gave you everything I had
But you left me sitting on my own
Did you have to treat me oh so bad
All I do is hang my head and moan
.
Tell me why you cried
And why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried
And why you lied to me
.
If there's something I have said or done
Tell me what and I'll apologize
If you don't I really can't go on
Holding back these tears in my eyes
.
Tell me why you cried
And why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried
And why you lied to me
.
Well I'm beggin' on my bended knees
If you'll only listen to my pleas
Is there anything I can do
'cause I really can't stand it
I'm so in love with you
.
Tell me why you cried
And why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried
And why you lied to me
