It's five o'clock in the mornin' The telephone's ringin' Too early to be callin' & it's too late A voice says "Can I come over?" A voice inside me says "It's over" But, then, I hear me answer "Yes, it's alright." I don't think I'll ever understand Why you hurt the one that really loves you I don't want You hangin' around my door Your "I love you"s don't mean nothin' anymore I cried one too many times for you before
Now I ain't gonna cry no more Oh, baby, you're on your way But, my time, it's drawin' near Will I say what's on my mind? Or, whisper words you wanna hear? But, I don't think I'll ever understand Why you hurt the one that really loves you I don't want You hangin' around my door Your "I love you"s don't mean nothin' anymore I cried one too many times for you before Now I ain't gonna cry no more
