Brian McKnight

[Verse 1]
My shattered dreams and broken heart
Are mending on the shelf
I saw you holding hands
Standing close to someone else
Now I sit all alone
Wishing all my feeling was gone
I gave my best to you
Nothing for me to do
But have one last cry

[Chorus]
One last cry
Before I leave it all behind
I've gotta put you out of my mind this time
(Sounds so good to me)
Stop living a lie
I guess I'm down to my last cry
Cry

[Verse 2]
I was here, you were there
Guess we never could agree
While the sun shines on you
I need some love to rain on me
Still I sit all alone
Wishing all my feeling was gone
Gotta get over you
Nothing for me to do
But have one last cry

[Chorus]
One last cry
Before I leave it all behind
I've gotta put you out of my mind this time
(Sounds so good to me)
Stop living a lie

[Bridge]
I know I gotta be strong
'Cause 'round me life goes on and on and on and on
And on and on

I'm gonna dry my eyes
Right after I end my one last cry

[Chorus]
One last cry
Before I leave it all behind
I've gotta put you out of my mind for the very last time
Been living a lie
I guess I'm down, oh yeah
I guess I'm down, yeah
I guess I'm down...
To my last cry

[Outro]
Thank you so much, I love you, God bless you, good night
