Lyrics

[Verse 1] How many tears now, darling Must a girl let fall How many years will it take To forgive me for it all You see when I took you for granted I knew not just what I'd done I was a fool not to see That you were the perfect one [Pre-Chorus] I made some wrong moves I won't deny Went looking for love When it was right before my eyes So now don't go and tell me That you found somebody new I tell you it's gonna hurt me More than I could ever hurt you [Chorus] I'm gonna cry, cry like a rainy day It's just that I don't wanna see A good thing slip away Late at night that's when I, I hope and pray These lonely tears will wash the pain away I'm gonna cry, cry, cry like a rainy day Cry like a rainy day [Verse 2] I'm gonna get it together Gonna try to make you understand Wrote it all down in a letter From one woman to a man [Pre-Chorus] Remember these arms How they held you then Mark my words It's gonna be that way again Give me one more chance I swear to God I'll be true Don't walk away Now I'll never, never make it without you [Chorus] I'm gonna cry like a rainy day It's just that I don't wanna see A good thing slip away Late at night that's when I, I hope and pray These lonely tears will wash the pain away I'm gonna cry, cry, cry like a rainy day [Outro] I'm gonna cry, cry like a rainy day I'm gonna cry, cry
