Don't cry, my sweet love, you know how I can't stand you crying
All right, my lady love, I know how hard you been trying
Some day in the morning, when the sunshine won't shine in your window
You may remember that I was the sun in your window
But these things happen all the time, they're always the same
One's always crying, and one's always easing the pain
You say good bye, my lady love, you don't want the memories to haunt you
Just look in my eyes, babe, you can change my mind if you want to
But some day, with someone that you never cared for to start with
You may remember the one boy you once shared your heart with
But these things are happening, and never right all the time
One's always leaving, and one's always changing his mind

(Instrumental break)

Another time, another place, you know that I really love you
Dry your eyes, my funny face, I never placed another one above you
Don't you remember the way that you once tried to leave me
And maybe some day, you may know you really didn't need me
But these things happen all the time, they're always the same
One's always crying, and one's always taking the blame
One's always crying, and one's always taking the blame
