Cry Like a Rainy Day - Etta James

How many tears now darling

Must a girl let fall

How many years will it take

To forgive me for it all

You see when i took you for granted

I knew not just what I’d done

I was a fool not to see

That you were the perfect one

I made some wrong moves

I won’t deny

Went lookin’for love when it was

Right before my eyes

So now don’t go and tell me

That you found somebody new

I tell you that’s gonna hurt me

More than i could ever hurt you

I’m gonna cry

It’s just that I

Don’t want to see

A good thing slip away

Late at night that’s when I

I hope and pray

These lonely tears

Will wash the pain away

And I’m gonna cry, cry, cry

Like a rainy day

I’m gonna get it together

Gonna try to make you understand

Wrote all down in a letter

From one woman to a man

Remember these arms

How they held you then

Mark my words

It’s gonna be that way again

Give me one more chance

I swear to god I’ll be true

Don’t walk away

Now i’ll never never make it without you

I’m gonna cry

Like a rainy day

It’s just that i don’t want to see

A good thing slip away

Late at night that’s when I, I hope and pray

These lonely tears will wash the pain away

I’m gonna cry cry cry like a rainy day

I’m gonna cry cry like a rainy day

I’m gonna cry cry
