[Verse 1]
Aw why does she sing
Her sad songs for me, I'm not the one
To tenderly bring
Her soft sympathy, I've just begun
To see my way clear
And it's plain if I stop I will fall
I can lay down a tear for her pain
Just a tear and that's all
Oh what does she want me to do?
She says that she knows
That moments are rare, I suppose that it's true
Then on she goes
To say I don't care, aw she knows that I do
[Chorus]
Maybe she just has to sing
For the sake of the song
And who do I think that I am
To decide that she's wrong?
[Verse 2]
She'd like to think I was cruel
But she knows that's a lie for I would be
No more than a tool
If I allowed her to cry all over me
Aw why does she sing
Her sad songs for me, I'm not the one
To tenderly bring
Her soft sympathy, I've just begun
To see my way clear
And it's plain if I stop I will fall
I can lay down a tear for her pain
Just a tear and that's all
Oh what does she want me to do?
She says that she knows
That moments are rare, I suppose that it's true
Then on she goes
To say I don't care, aw she knows that I do
[Chorus]
Maybe she just has to sing
For the sake of the song
And who do I think that I am
To decide that she's wrong?
[Verse 2]
She'd like to think I was cruel
But she knows that's a lie for I would be
No more than a tool
If I allowed her to cry all over me
