As You Cry Lyrics
I'm a half-hearted fool
With a heart that's broke in two
A quarter and a kiss
Is all I should be worth to you
I must be the last of my kind
'Cause you treasure me
Despite all the signs
Your love is disappearing
And darling, you shouldn't even try
After every fight
We always wonder what we're fighting for
Mint me up and mark me
Yeah, you stole me
But I am not yours
As you cry, I wanna lie
Say, "I love you so, darling"
Even though I don't
There's no easy way to ease the pain, whoa
Roses and the tulips have withered away
They had their day
So it's time
To say goodnight and goodbye
You're so bright
That you shine right through
All the problems that I always
Try and lay on you
Won't you take me off, darling?
Won't you get some air in this room?
I can't believe
What I cannot hold inside of my hand
Won't let nobody in
Who might decide to mess up the plan
I'd be a liar if I told you
That we would work out
After every fight
We always wonder what we're fighting for
Mint me up and mark me
Yeah, you stole me
But I am not yours
As you cry, I wanna lie
Say, "I love you so, darling"
Even though I don't
There's no easy way to ease the pain, whoa
Roses and the tulips have withered away
They had their day
So it's time
To say goodnight and goodbye
Nobody's singing about you anymore
You thought you heard it?
Well, you must have heard wrong
It's my business
And that's all right
Don't you see that?
As you cry, I wanna lie
Say, "I love you so, darling"
Even though I don't
There's no easy way to ease the pain, whoa
Roses and the tulips have withered away
They had their day
So it's time
To say goodnight and goodbye
Goodbye
With a heart that's broke in two
A quarter and a kiss
Is all I should be worth to you
'Cause you treasure me
Despite all the signs
Your love is disappearing
And darling, you shouldn't even try
We always wonder what we're fighting for
Mint me up and mark me
Yeah, you stole me
But I am not yours
Say, "I love you so, darling"
Even though I don't
There's no easy way to ease the pain, whoa
Roses and the tulips have withered away
They had their day
So it's time
To say goodnight and goodbye
That you shine right through
All the problems that I always
Try and lay on you
Won't you take me off, darling?
Won't you get some air in this room?
What I cannot hold inside of my hand
Won't let nobody in
Who might decide to mess up the plan
I'd be a liar if I told you
That we would work out
We always wonder what we're fighting for
Mint me up and mark me
Yeah, you stole me
But I am not yours
Say, "I love you so, darling"
Even though I don't
There's no easy way to ease the pain, whoa
Roses and the tulips have withered away

Roses and the tulips have withered away
They had their day
So it's time
To say goodnight and goodbye
Goodbye

Pretty much every song on this CD is about this, Not Your Concern keeps up the same theme. The album is called "Goodbye Blues" for gods sake.

I checked these with the booklet.
Thank you.
the song is pretty selfexplanitory...
loved eachother once, try to make it work, its not, it never will...
luv this song :)
she likes this guy that's kind of scummy but he doesn't care about her too much and their love is slowly dying if it's not already dead
Really ridiculously catchy. When I heard the first live recording I was horrified, because the idea of the song in and of itself is a little cliched. But the lyrics are inspired, really interesting. Yay.
my ex sent me this song the other day.
that bastard.
i feel you demimondaine.
