Lyric - Crying (Roy Orbison, 1961)

Crying
Written by Roy Orbison, Joe Melson
Monument 447, July 1961


I was alright for a while,
I could smile for a while.
But when I saw you last night,
You held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say hello.
And though you wished me well,
You couldn't tell that I'd been
Crying over you, crying over you
Yes you said so long, and left me standing all alone,
Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying

It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand
Can start me crying.

I thought that I was over you,
But it's true, so true.
I love you even more
Than I did before,
But darling, what can I do?
Oh, you don't love me,
And I'll always be
Crying over you, crying over you,
Yes, now you're gone, and from this moment on,
I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying
Over you.
