<!-- start of lyrics -->
|
Every single time
|
You take me out with you
|
You always flirt around
|
With someone new
|
|
But I never criticize
|
The tearful things you do
|
Cause I'm so afraid
|
Of losing you
|
|
But in my lonely room
|
Tears I don't have to hide
|
Cause I just lock my door
|
And let myself go and
|
Lay right down and cry
|
|
Every place we go
|
People are whispering
|
About your flirting ways
|
And it hurts me so to hear
|
|
But in the public's eye
|
I just push behind
|
All my hurt inside
|
And pretend I don't mind
|
|
But in my lonely room
|
Tears I don't have to hide
|
In my lonely, lonely
|
Lonely, lonely room
|
|
I push my pride aside
|
And lay right down and cry
|
In my lonely room
|
In my lonely room
|
Let myself go... [fade]
