Cry Just a Little Bit Lyrics

Every time you have to whisper goodbye Well I cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit) I know it's crazy and I don't know why But I die just a little bit (die just a little bit) I need to be the one that's by your side Your the beat in my heart My love for you is something I can't hide And I cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit) Cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit) Every night before I'm falling asleep Well I pray just a little bit (pray just a little bit) I pray nobody wants your loving to keep And you'll stray just a little bit (stray just a little bit) Don't let temptation fill your heart with dreams Don't let your mind run away (Ohhh-ohhh-ohhh) Forbidden love is never what it seems And you cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit) Cry just a little bit, little bit, little bit Your the light that brightens all of my days And the sun shines above you And I would die if someone took you away 'Cos I love you Love You (Cry just a little bit, cry just a little bit) I want forever to be you and I And that's the way it should be (Ooooh-ohhh-0hhh) I Look for you and baby that is why I cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit) Cry just a little bit Everynight we have to whisper goodbye I cry just a little bit (cry just a little bit) I know it's crazy and I don't know why But I die just a little bit (die just a little bit) Cry (cry) Cry Cry just a little bit Cry just a little bit Cry (cry) Cry Cry just a little bit Cry just a little bit Cry (cry) Cry Cry just a little bit Cry just a little bit Cry (cry) Cry Cry just a little bit Cry just a little bit Cry (cry) Cry Cry just a little bit Cry just a little bit Cry (cry) Cry Cry just a little bit Cry just a little bit Cry
