Kevin Welch - Cryin For Nothin Lyrics

I am a full grown fool
And I should have know better
But I tried and I tried
And I could not forget her
I would go back to her
Time after time
Man I must have been out of mind
All of that crying for nothing
All of that trying for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
I've got to keep believing
In something baby
Instead of just trying for nothing
Crying for nothing at all
We fought for love
And we fought for trust
And the whole blessed time
It was right there in front of us
But we could not reach it
I don't know why
And it took so long
Just to say goodbye
All of that crying for nothing
All of that trying for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
I've got to keep believing
In something baby
Instead of just trying for nothing
Crying for nothing at all
Her friends all told me
Mine told me
But we would not listen
We could not see
Me and my pride
Her and her dreams
We never stood a chance it seems

All of that crying for nothing
All of that trying for nothing
What has it ever got me
What has it ever taught me
I've got to keep believing
In something baby
Instead of just trying for nothing
Crying for nothing at all
