My shaded tears and broken heart are mending on the shelf.
I saw you holding hands, standing close to someone else.
Now I sit all alone, wishing all my feelings gone,
I give my best to you, nothing for me to do.

But I’ve one last cry, one last cry,
Before I leave it all behind.
I gotta put you out of my mind.
This time, stop live in a lie.
I guess I’m damned to my last cry.

I was here, you owe a thing, guess we never could aquaint
Why the sun shines on you, I need some love to rain down on me.
Still I sit all alone, wishing all my feeling was gone,
I gotta get over you, there’s nothing for me to do.

But I’ve one last cry, one last cry,
Before I leave it all behind.
I gotta put you out of my mind.
For the very last time, I can’t even lie,
I know I gotta be strong, ‘cause life goes on and on.
And on.

One last cry before I leave it all behind,
I gotta put you out of my mind
This time I’ve been living a lie,
I guess I’m bound to my last cry.
One last cry before I leave it all behind,
I gotta put you out of my mind
This is gonna be the last time
I guess I’m gonna, I guess sometime, I guess I’m damned to my last cry.
