By Myself

I try to smile when I want to cry

Do you know how it hurt me when you said goodbye?

And sometimes the only thing that helps

Is to go off by myself and cry

I try so hard, but I can't forget

I know you left me, but you're part of me yet

And sometimes the only thing that helps

Is to go off by myself and cry

Your ways, your ways are so confusing

You say things that cut like a knife

Oh yes, but I'm begging, begging for just a little consideration

Because of the part you play in my life

I know I give much more than I receive

I have so much bad luck, it's hard to believe

And sometimes the only thing that helps

Is to go off by myself and cry
