Eric Benet - Sometimes I Cry lyrics

rate me

<i>[Verse 1:]</i>

Two years since you walked away from me

Since all of our scattered dreams

Were just thrown away

I'm finally gettin back to what I used to be

Share my pain with my family

Think I'm on my way

I can sleep at night,

I don't reach for you when I wake up

But it's taken some time

I can live my life

Without praying that we could make up

I'm movin on, I'm feeling strong inside

<i>[Chorus 1:]</i>

But sometimes I cry, babe

When I'm all alone

With this heart of mine

Sometimes I cry, babe

Although you've been gone

For a long, long time

<i>[Verse 2:]</i>

Heard you're moving in with someone new

I hope all your dreams come true

And you'll both be happy, yeah

Been long enough for me to take a look around

I've met a girl, we've been hangin out

She's been good for me

But when we're makin love

She don't take me there like you used to

And it hurts when I lie (when I lie baby)

Help me understand how to push you out,

Forget you and let you go,

Cause Lord knows I've tried, yeah

<i>[Chorus 2:]</i>

But sometimes I cry, babe

Been at all that hurtin

For a long, long time (yes, I have babe)

Sometimes I cry, babe

Ain't nothin workin

For this pain of mine

<i>[Bridge:]</i>

I'll just have to fake it

Until I can make it

There's a smile on my face, yeah

But I'm broken inside
