if i had just one tear
running down your cheek,
maybe i could cope
maybe i'd get some sleep.
if i had just one moment
at your expense,
maybe all my misery
would be well spent, yeaaaaaa.....


could you cry a little,
lie just a little,
pretend that you're feeling
a little more pain.
i gave, now im wanting
something in return,
so cry just a little for me.


if your love could be caged, honey,
i would hold the key.
and conceal it underneath
that pile of lies you handed me.
and you'd hunt and those lies,
they'd be all you'd ever find.
and that'd be all you'd have to know
for me to be fine, yeaaaaa.....


and you'd cry a little,
die just a little,
and baby i would feel just a little less pain.
i gave now from wanting
something in return,
so cry just a little for me.


give it up baby, I hear your goodbye.
nothings gonna save it,
I can see it in your eye.
some kind of heartache, honey give it a try.
i don't want pity,
i just want what is mine, yeaaaaa....


could you cry a little,
lie just a little,
pretend that you're feeling
a little more pain.
i gave, now im wanting
something in return,
