Why Must I Cry [#] Lyrics

Why must I cry
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I cry
These tears from mine eyes

Making believe you love me only
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa

But I will never fall in love again
'Cause only my heart feels the pain
Feels the pain

Why must I trod
This lonely, this lonely road
Why must I carry
This heavy, this heavy load

Making believe you love me only
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) hmm, my great sin

I'll never fall in love again
'Cause only my heart feels the pain
Feels the pain
Sad pain

I will never fall in love again
'Cause only my heart feels the pain
Feels the pain
Why must I cry
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I cry
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I trod
This lonely, lonely, lonely road
Why must I carry
This heavy, heavy, heavy load
Why must I cry
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I cry
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I trod

Why must I cry 
These tears from mine eyes 
Why must I cry 
These tears from mine eyes

Making believe you love me only 
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa

But I will never fall in love again 
'Cause only my heart feels the pain
Feels the pain

Why must I trod 
This lonely, this lonely road 
Why must I carry 
This heavy, this heavy load

Making believe you love me only 
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) was my great sin, whoa
(Just to love) hmm, my great sin

I'll never fall in love again 
'Cause only my heart feels the pain 
Feels the pain 
Sad pain

I will never fall in love again 
'Cause only my heart feels the pain 
Feels the pain 
Why must I cry 
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I cry 
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I trod
This lonely, lonely, lonely road
Why must I carry 
This heavy, heavy, heavy load
Why must I cry 
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I cry 
These tears from mine eyes
Why must I trod

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
