Can't I cry a little bit, there's nobody to notice it
Can't I cry if I want to, no one cares
Why can't I pretend that you love me again
All I have has been taken from me
Now I'm cryin', I'm cryin' and tears will be comin'

[Chorus: ]
Just one smile, the pain's forgiven
Just one kiss, the hurt's all gone
Just one smile to make my life worth livin'
A little dream, a bit of my own home
How I wish I could say all the things that I want to say
If someway you could see what's in my heart
I don't ask for much, a look, a smile, a touch
Tryin' to forget, Lord knows I'm tryin'
But it's hard to forget when your whole world, your whole world is dyin'

[Chorus: ]

Why can't I pretend that you love me again
Tryin' to forget, Lord knows I'm tryin'
But it's hard to forget when your whole world, your whole world is dyin'

[Chorus: Repeats ]
