Why Are You Crying     (Rick Roberts)


Why are you crying and what can I do
It's not so easy just watching you cry all alone
Can you tell me what's wrong
And if you think it might help I can bring my guitar and sing you a song
I know love's made a fool of others
And I know love's made a fool of  me
Try to answer questions that you never even asked of me
I know you've been left in doubt by the things that you not sure about
Well I can say I've been there too
And maybe we can both find out if you will tell me
Why are you crying and what can I do
It's not so easy just watching you cry all alone
Can you tell me what's wrong
And if you think it might help I can bring my guitar and sing you a song
You say there's no way I can help and in the end that might be true
But you never know untill you try
And that's all I've asked of you
And I can see you have your secrets
And that's all right I have mine too
But you should always share your troubles
Makes it that much easier on you
Why are you crying and what I can do
It's not so easy just watching you cry all alone
Can you tell me what's wrong
And if you think it might help I can bring my guitar and sing you a song
