[Verse 1]
Well, I thought I could make you cry
Oh didn't I?
I didn't think that I would miss you
Ah did you, did you true?
[Chorus 1]
And I told you before
When you walked out that door
That I would not love you any more
I cannot cope any more
[Solo]
[Verse 2]
Well, I thought you'd never lie
Why didn't I?
I didn't think that you'd be untrue
Well, did you, did you too?
[Chorus 2]
And I've told you before
When you'd walk out that door
That I would not cope any more
I do not have you any more
[Verse 3]
I thought I could make you cry
And I tried now didn't I?
I didn't think that I would miss you
But it wasn't true, I do
[Chorus 3]
And I told you before
A million times or more
That when you'd walk out that door
I would not love you any more
I do not love you any more
[Post-Chorus]
I lied now didn't I?
Oh didn't I?
[Bridge]
There are people in this town
That say I don't give a damn
But the people in this town
They never could understand
Oh they never could understand
[Verse 4]
I thought I could make you cry
And I tried now didn't I? Didn't I try? Didn't I?
I didn't think that I would miss you
But it wasn't true, I do, I do
[Chorus 4]
And I told you before
That you'd open up my sores
And you'd leave me here with scars
I cannot take it any more
Oh don't hurt me no more
[Outro]
I cried and I cried now didn't I?
Why didn't I try? Why didn't I?
