" "

I was alright for awhile;
I could smile for awhile.
But I saw you last night,
You held my hand so tight,
As you stopped to say, "Hello".<p>Oh, you wished me well,
You couldn't tell
That I'd been crying over you.
Crying over you.<p>When you said, "So long"
Left me standing all alone,
Alone and crying, crying.
Crying, crying.
