lyrics

Crying, waiting, hoping, that you'll come back
I just can't seem to get you off my mind...
Crying, waiting, hoping, that you'll come back
you're the one I love and I think about you all the time...

Crying... do do do...
my tears keep falling all night long
Waiting... do do do...
I feel so useless, I know it's wrong
to keep crying, waiting, hoping,
that you'll come back
maybe someday soon things will change
and you'll be mine...
