If I Was To Start Crying |
| I sent you candy and a dozen roses |
| I put my heart into a card three pages long |
| And now here I sit waiting getting over that Moses |
| For the answer I’ve been fearing all along. |
| Now I knew there were wicked women in the city |
| Who scattered shattered dreams like fools gold on the ground |
| I just didn’t know that they would be so heartbreak pretty |
| Or that one single icy laugh could cut me down. |
| Because I’ve always tried to keep my pride |
| There’s one last desperation measure I haven’t tried. |
| If I was to start crying, show my innermost feelings |
| If I was to break down on my bended knees and just plead my case. |
| Would it thaw your frozen heart a little? |
| Would you show some compassion? |
| Would you only feel pity and then compelled to turn me away. |
| Would you only feel pity and turn me away. |
| My walls catch all my anger |
| Your satin perfumed pillows catch my tears |
| Oh how I wish tonight that I could be that stranger |
| Whose hearing all your same old lies through brand new ears. |
| Because I’ve always tried to keep my pride |
| There’s one last desperation measure I haven’t tried. |
| If I was to start crying, show my innermost feelings |
| If I was to break down on my bended knees and just plead my case. |
| Would it thaw your frozen heart a little? |
| Would you show some compassion? |
| Would you only feel pity and then compelled to turn me away. |
| Would you only feel pity and turn me away. |
| Would you only feel pity and send me on my way. |
