[Verse 1]
Nobody knows except my pillow at night
All through the day how many tears I have to fight
[Chorus]
And oh, when I'm alone, yeah
I just cry like a baby
I cry like a baby
Oh, oh (I cry)
Oh-oh (I cry), yeah
[Verse 2]
Nobody sees except my mirror on the wall
I'm not the fairest, I'm the bluest of them all
[Chorus]
And, oh-oh, when I'm alone, yeah
I just cry like a baby
I cry like a baby
Oh-oh (I cry)
Oh-oh (I cry), yeah
[Bridge]
Each day I say, "Tomorrow will be my lucky day"
Ah-ha, yeah
And my pillow will be surprised when I come home with glad eyes
And the mirror on the wall will see that I'm happiest of them all, ooh, ooh
[Verse 3]
No more nights staring at that empty chair
Because I know that you'll be sitting there
[Chorus]
And oh-oh, when I'm alone, yeah
I won't cry like a baby
Cry like a baby
Oh yeah (I cry)
Said I won't cry (I cry), no
[Outro]
I won't cry like a baby (Cry like a baby)
Woo-hoo (I cry), no
Whoa-whoa (I cry), yeah
I won't (Cry like a baby)
Tell 'em for me again (Cry like a baby)
I said that I (I cry)
No, I won't cry (I cry)
