The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Another night sleepless I don't want to feel this Nothing can stop this pain Trying to get to a time I forget you Still tangled in yesterday It's so easy for you To give nothing for me Did you ever feel anything? I want you to cry over me Die over me Even for a moment Even for a moment I want you to hurt over me Feel what I feel I want you to cry over, die over me Baby, just for one time I want your heart broken Some sign of emotion Wanna to see the tears tumble down Show me I meant something And that you feel nothing But your world crashing to the ground It's so easy for you To forget about me Did I ever mean anything? I want you to cry over me Die over me Even for a moment Even for a moment I want you to hurt over me Feel what I feel I want you to cry over, die over me Baby, just for one time Cry, cry, cry But did you feel something? Did we mean nothing at all? I want you to cry over, cry over me Die over me Even for a moment Even for a moment I want you to hurt over me Feel what I feel Even for a moment Oh, why can't you just cry over, die over me Baby, why can't you hurt like I do Like I hurt over you Can't you cry over, die over me Baby, just for one time I want you to cry over, die over me Baby, want you to fall on your knees Baby, crawl back to me Want you to cry over, die over me Baby, just one time Cry, cry, cry
