Well, I gave you everything I had
But, you left me sittin' here all alone
Did you have to treat me so bad?
All I do, girl, is hang my head and moan
Tell me why you cry, and why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried, baby
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
If it's somethin' that I might have said
Just tell me, girl, and I'll apologize
If you don't I really can't go on
Holdin' back the tears, holdin' back the tears from my eyes
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried, baby
Just tell me why'd you cry, and why'd you lie to me
Well, I beg you on my bended knees
Baby, please-please, listen to what I say
If there's anything that I could do
Just tell me, girl, 'cause I'm so in love with you
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried, baby
Just tell me why'd you cry, and why'd you lie to me
But, you left me sittin' here all alone
Did you have to treat me so bad?
All I do, girl, is hang my head and moan
Tell me why you cry, and why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried, baby
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
If it's somethin' that I might have said
Just tell me, girl, and I'll apologize
If you don't I really can't go on
Holdin' back the tears, holdin' back the tears from my eyes
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried, baby
Just tell me why'd you cry, and why'd you lie to me
Well, I beg you on my bended knees
Baby, please-please, listen to what I say
If there's anything that I could do
Just tell me, girl, 'cause I'm so in love with you
Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me
Tell me why you cried, baby
Just tell me why'd you cry, and why'd you lie to me
