Crying shame

I cried all night just thinkin' of you
I wonder now what I'm gonna do
Since you left me for that friend of mine
Every second it's just driving me blind

I cry 'cos my heart is in pain
I cry, though I know it's in vain
But knowing this, I cry all the same
I wake at night cryin' out your name

You said that you'd never lea-eave
Never leave, said that you are at ease
(*** DW : Never listened that you were a tease ***}
People talk about me behind my back
They don't understand it's your fashion I like

People go around and whisper my name
They think it's a laugh 'cos I never complain
But to my face they are always the same
They don't understand this a-crying shame

You always said that you needed me
Exactly what for I find it hard to see
I've sat up all night wishing you were still mine
Now I understand there's better things to do with my time

I cried because my heart was in pain
I cried, though I know it's in vain
But knowing this, I cried all the same
I woke at night cryin' out your name

I cried each night with tears in my eyes
I can't believe you are telling me lies
People go around whispering my name
But don't they know it's a crying shame?

I cried because my heart was in pain
I cried, though I know it was in vain
But knowing this, I cried all the same
I woke at night cryin' out your name
