SOMEONE'S GOTTA CRY
(Don Bowman)


Margie Singleton - 1965
Dottie West - 1966
Jean Shepherd - 1967


Someone's gotta cry when love is over
And as you leave it's very plain to see
You're not about to cry, for you're in love again
But someone's gotta cry, so that leaves me

There's very little left to say
The goodbyes have been said
But anytime a true love dies
There's tears to be shed

Someone's gotta cry, that makes it final
And in her arms is where you wanna be
You smile at her, she smiles at you and you're happy
Oh, but someone's gotta cry and that leaves me

Yes, there's very little left to say
The goodbyes have been said
But anytime a true love dies
There's tears to be shed

Someone's gotta cry, that makes it final
And in her arms is where you wanna be
You smile at her, she smiles at you, you're happy
Oh, but someone's gotta cry and that leaves me
