Lyrics
I cried for you
But you were cruel.
You said that I could never have
A girl like you.
I cried for you
For many years:
The blue-eyed girl for whom my love
Was so sincere.
For years I knew the pain
Of loving you in vain.
Yes, I loved other girls
But never quite the same.
But looking back I find
The pain's come to define
The man I am today
Who loves a better way.
I cried for you. I cried for you. I cried for you...
I cried for you
But I came through.
The blue eyed girl
who broke my heart
And was so cruel.
One day you're
At my door,
Said many years before
You were that other girl
You're not that anymore.
For years you knew the pain
Of hurting me in vain -
Yes, you loved other men,
But never quite the same.
I cried for you
But it's all good.
The blued-eyed girl
That once loved -
I cried for you.
