Song Lyrics

I've been crying 'cause I am lonely
Smiles have altered to tears
But tears won't wash away the fears
'Cause you never ever gonna return
To ease the fire that within me burns

Keeps me crying, baby, for you
Keeps me sighing, baby, for you
So won't you hurry, come on boy, see about me

I've given up my friends just for you
My friends are gone and you have, too
No peace shall I find until you come back and be mine

No matter what you do or say
I am gonna love you anyway

Keep on crying, baby, for you
Keep on sighing, baby, for you
So come on and hurry, come on boy, see about me

Sometimes up, sometimes down
My life's so uncertain with you not around
From my arms, you may be out of reach
But my heart says that you're here to keep

Keeps my crying, baby, for you
Keep on keep on crying, baby, for you
So come on and hurry, come on boy, see about me

Mmm baby, 'cause I been crying
'Cause I been lonely

Hurry, hurry, baby
Hurry, hurry, baby
Hurry, hurry, baby
Hurry, hurry, baby
