Lyrics

[Verse 1]

All the pretty stars shine for you, my love

Am I that girl that you dream of?

All those little times you said that I'm your girl

You make me feel like your whole world

[PreChorus]

I'll wait for you, babe

That's all I do, babe

Don't come through, babe

You never do

[Chorus]

Because I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

[Verse 2]

All those special times I spent with you, my love

They don't mean shit compared to all your drugs

But I don't really mind, I've got much more than that

Like my memories, I don't need that

[PreChorus]

I'll wait for you, babe

You don't come through, babe

You never do, babe

That's just what you do

[Chorus]

Because I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

[Bridge]

Don't say you need me when you leave, and you leave again

I'm stronger than all my men except for you

Don't say you need me if, you live last, you're leaving

I can't do it, I can't do it, but you do it best

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

[Outro]

Pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry

I'm pretty when I cry
