The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Maybe it's true we're not together But when I close my eyes, You're still here. The sweet taste of love can last forever. Sometimes it makes me cry, But I still find a smile for every tear. Maybe I am blue, Maybe I'm crazy too, But I'll always love you... Cross my broken heart. When I hear your name in conversation, I melt into a dream. I can't forget. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. It hurts me now and then But I'd do it all again, With no regrets. Maybe I am blue, Maybe I'm crazy too, But I'll always love you... Cross my broken heart. I could say love wasn't worth all the tears that it took, But I wouldn't lie to you now, you know I never could. Maybe I am blue, Maybe I'm crazy too, But I'll always love you... Cross my broken heart.
