So cry baby wash out your heart
Hang your life out to dry and make a new start
Then came the telephone ring it was the logical thing
I left it for awhile I let him hang up and redial
And then I picked up the telephone
And I said don't worry honey no no no no no no you're not alone
So cry baby wash out your heart...
I really feel for you nd what you're going through
And this sad situation is all part of sentimental education
[ sax ]
This is a tale of woe you've heard it all before
And nothing I can say can to even ease the pain
But still I picked up the telephone
And I said don't worry honey no no no no no no you're not alone
Once inside a woman's heart a man must keep his head
Heaven opened up the door where angels fear to tread
Some men go crazy some men go real slow
Some men go just where they want some men never go
Oh blame it on midnight ooh shame on the moon
Everywhere it's all around comfort in a crowd
Strangers faces all around laughing right out loud
Hey watch where you're going step light on your toes
Till you've been beside a man you don't know who he knows
Oh blame it on midnight ooh shame on the moon
Oh blame it on midnight ooh shame on the moon
I'm gonna stay right here by your side do my best to keep you satisfied
Nothing in this world can ever drive me away everyday you'll hear me say
Baby I'm yours and I'll be yours until two and two make three yeah
Yours until the mountains crumble to the sea
In other words until eternity
I wish I was still the fool who thought I could live without you
Then I'd never know how it hurts to see you go
Keep on believing it was never meant to last
But I close my eyes at night trying not to hear about you
And wake up to the fact that I can never have you back
And try to keep living with a heartache and a half
I'm talkin' bout this heartache heartache and a half
All the mistakes I made before keep on coming back to hurt me more and more
And the love I did not show just won't let me go oh no
Now I'm left here all alone holding on to a heartache and a half
I'm talkin' bout a heartache heartache and a half
You're not changing me and I'm not changing you
The only change is what we're going through
You took the part of me that I was proudest of
Now you're saying that's the part you can't love
Changes I'm gonna have to make some changes
Now that I know what the game is
I know that I would only lose no matter what I do
And the first change that I'll make is you
If lovin' what you had ain't what you want
What do you need you don't need me
You said I was the answer to your prayers
It don't seem fair we both still care
Changes I'm gonna have to make some changes
Now that I know what the game is
I know that I would only lose no matter what I do
And the first change that I make is gonna be you
He was the kind of man that would gamble on luck
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him cryin' like a little whipped pup because of love
Can't see it with your eyes hold it in your hand
But like the wind that covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man this thing called love
It can lift you up it can let you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time nothing's ever been found stronger than love
Most people like me they struggle in doubt
Trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy with livin' to worry about a little thing called love
But when I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young close to her brest
And I thank God that this world's been blessed with a thing called love
