I see a tear in your eye
Makes me wonder why
Could it be that I've done wrong
Don't you know by now
I'll never leave you

There ain't a sound in the room
Sing a little tune
Make me feel that you're OK
Don't you know by now
I never thought I'd hurt you

Sometimes the world plays a game
Just to tease people
Sometimes the game leaves you crying
Sometimes you win and it don't mean a thing
And you laugh in the end
And you tell all your friends
Guess what happened to me
Don't cry now

If there's a tear in your eye
Let me kiss it dry
Please don't let our love go wrong
Don't you know by now
I couldn't live without you

Sometimes I act like a fool
Just to show people
Sometimes a fool can't help lying
I messed around but it don't mean a thing
'Cause I'm yours in the end
There's a love to defend
So forgive me and oh
Don't cry now

There's not a thing I can say
Love will save the day
Time will tell if you're still mine
Don't you know by now
Life just too short for sorrow

Sometimes the world plays a game
Just to tease people
Sometimes the game leaves you crying
I messed around but it don't mean a thing
'Cause I'm yours in the end
There's a love to defend
So forgive me and oh
Don't cry now

I messed around but it don't mean a thing
'Cause I'm yours in the end
There's a love to defend
So forgive me and oh
Don't cry now
