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.
