Marcy don't think she's pretty no more Staring at the stars through her back screen door She tries and tries to make it all work out No matter what she does She's left standin in the middle of doubt
In a lonely night And in the pourin rain You can count on me
Sometimes she cries When shes alone at night Sometimes she weeps When she's feeling cold and weak Sometimes the pain It tears her up inside Sometimes she cries Ooh, I wonder why
Mercy don't have a love no more Plays with her pillow Stares at the bedroom floor Used to have a million They've come and gone No matter what she does She can't figure out what she's doin' wrong
In a lonely night And in the pourin rain You can count on me
Sometimes she cries When shes alone at night Sometimes she weeps When she's feeling cold and weak Sometimes the pain It tears her up inside Sometimes she cries Ooh, I wonder why
Living, loving, give it everything you've got After all the heartache Maybe give love just one more shot, yeah
In a lonely night And in the pourin rain The only thing I really wanna know is why Sometimes she cries When she's alone at night Sometimes she weeps When she's feelin cold and weak Sometimes the pain It tears her up inside Sometimes she cries
