CRY MY HEART OUT
(Norman Newell / Norrie Paramor)
as recorded by Helen Shapiro
1962
I could cry my heart out for you,
But what good would crying ever do?
You belong to someone else and I can see
That you never, never notice me!
I could cry my heart out for you,
But my heart will love nobody new.
I'm a fool, but that's the way it's gonna be
Until maybe you will notice me!
Every time you start to walk in my direction,
I wish that you could only look my way.
If you ever start to pay me some attention,
All the world can take a holiday!
I could cry my heart out for you,
But what good would crying ever do?
I know that you're worth waiting for, but what else can I do
But to cry my heart out for you!
I know that you're worth waiting for, but what else can I do
But to cry my heart out for you!
