Do I have to cry In order to catch your eye The love we hold precious You now take for granted and I Don't know what to do I find I'm still loving you But I'm just a fixture You keep like a picture on the wall Do I have to cry To show what I feel inside Friends try to console me But words just can't hold me the way Your arms used to do When we'd love the whole night through Still I'll keep a smile up While tears seems to pile up inside I thought true love Was something that would never change Like in the stories mama told To put me off to sleep Now I am wiser Knowing nothing ever stays the same But there are some of those fairy tales You've got to keep Or you might as well die If love should return And you don't know what do do You don't have to run back As long as you come back to me And don't be surprised If I should cry Do I have to cry Tell me do I have to cry Tell me do I have to cry Oh, do I have to cry
