The American Lyrics - 2000

[ Buy The American ]

If i had just one tear running down your cheek
Maybe i could cope maybe i'd get some sleep
If i had just one moment at your expense
Maybe all my misery would be well spent


Could you cry a little
Lie just a little
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain
I gave now i'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me


If your love could be caged, honey. i would hold the key
And conceal it underneath that pile of lies you handed me
And you'd hunt and those lies
They'd be all you'd ever find
And that'd be all you'd have to know
For me to be fine


And you'd cry a little
You'd die just a little
And baby i would feel just a little less pain
I gave now from wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me


Give it up baby
A whimper would be fine
Some kind of clue that
You're doing time
Some kind of heartache
Honey give it a try
I don't want pity
I just want what is mine
