Seeing you sad makes me cry
Seeing you glad makes me cry for joy
If we were all as happy as can be
Then I know you'd share your life with me
You need a reason to give up
I, on the other hand, need a reason to go on
If we would all just live up to our words
Then I know that we'd be moving right along
Singin'
Why I wonder do we always have to cry?
Why I wonder do I bleed myself dry for you?
Why I wonder do we always have to cry?
Why do I live a lie?
If you were wondering where I was that night
I'll tell you, I was in a fight
With the former girl that I used to like
We talked about you and you and me
And why she and me couldn't be
Together like we used to be
I said it's not you it's me
Singin'
Why I wonder do we always have to cry?
Why I wonder do I bleed myself dry for you?
Why I wonder do we always have to cry?
Why do I live a lie?
And I see you sitting there with him
Whispering in his open ears
Things I know I never, ever got to hear
Things like ooooh
Yeah I see you
Why I wonder do we always have to cry?
Why I wonder why?
Why I wonder do we always have to cry?
Why do I live a lie?
And I see you sitting there with him
Whispering in his open ears
Things I know I never, ever got to hear
I see you with him, and when your with him baby
You forget about me
You wonder why I cry and I reply
Oh that you pretend to hate me
You pretend to hate me
You pretend to hate me
You pretend to...
Singin'
Why I wonder do we always have to cry?
Why I wonder do I bleed myself dry for you?
Why I wonder do we always have to cry?
Why do I live a lie?
