A Crying Shame

It's a crying shame, When love cuts you deeply, When you don't want to hear my name, And when you pretend to have been over me. It's a crying shame, That I still love you, Especially after all the pain I've been through, That you've given me through and through. It's a crying shame, How we both know that we love each other, But don't want our appearance to falter, So we hate each other out of our love. It's a crying shame, That you lie about me, That you blame me, That you hate me. It's a crying shame, That hatred devours you from the love you once felt, Torturing you so, Just let it go. It's a crying shame, That I try to hurt you because you hurt me, That I am filled with anxiety, I have to try to just let it be. It's a crying shame, That you have me to blame. And I think about it everytime I hear your name. It's all a crying shame.

Hurt we are, we have to move on. When we do, its to a different song. For this song that's sung - at another time, this may be your song in loving rhyme >> James
