You've seen me cry



you've seen me cry
and walked right by
did not ask why
just turned and sighed

you've seen me cry
again passed by
didn't blink an eye
so don't you lie

you've seen me cry
don't ask me why
i thought you were the one, the guy
to share my life until i die

you've seen me cry
still walking by
you never tried
not once
oh my

you've seen me cry
no more, not i
these tear filled eyes
are now so dry

i guess its time to say goodbye
i'm leaving with my head held high
for now it is...my time to fly

you've seen me cry
no more, bye bye
