You're trying to forget but can't believe how long it's taking You see him on the street and still you feel your poor heart aching But don't let him know it hurts that much Don't let him see it's been that rough Don't let him think that you even miss him at all Chorus: You can cry in your sleep, cry in your heart Cry in your pillow, cry in the dark You can cry in your dreams, cry in your mind But cry on the inside if he walks by 'Cause you'll just hate yourself anyhow For crying out loud If he's out in the crowd then just pretend that you don't see him Look the other way and make believe that you don't need him Don't let him take your dignity Don't let him make you feel so weak Don't let him think he even crosses your mind Chorus: You can cry in your sleep, cry in your heart Cry in your pillow, cry in the dark You can cry in your dreams, cry in your mind But cry on the inside if he walks by 'Cause you'll just hate yourself anyhow For crying out loud And if he ever asks just say you're all right Put on your brightest smile 'till he's out of sight Then if you've got to cry Chorus: You can cry in your sleep, cry in your heart Cry in your pillow, cry in the dark You can cry in your dreams, cry in your mind But cry on the inside if he walks by 'Cause you'll just hate yourself anyhow For crying out loud
