Being hurt by the one you love

It's a feeling that's hard to hide

But you don't seem to understand why

When I'm alone, I sit and cry



Ask any girl who's often left alone all by herself

Neglectfully pushed aside, set aside like a doll on a shelf

Just ask any girl, ooh, and you'll understand why

I sit and cry



Ask any girl who knows the fear of losing someone dear

And she'll say the same thing, it hurts you deep, makes it hard to sleep

Don't take my word, ask any girl, then you'll understand why

I sit and cry



(La la la, la la la la la la la la, la la la, la la la)



Ask any girl who receives no loving affection

And she'll feel as I feel, it's heartaches by the number

Many nights without slumber

Ask any girl, ooh, and then you'll know why

I sit and cry

I sit and cry
