Cryin’ Today by Melodie Yvonne

I’m sad and I feel like cryin’ today
I don’t understand why this won’t go away
And all that I wanted was for you to stay
But now all I want is my own little way

I’m sad and I feel like cryin’ today
This isn’t a game and I don’t wanna play
I’ve given you every reason to stay
But I’m takin them back now so you better pray

I’m sad and I feel like cryin’ today
I don’t understand all these things that you say
I’ll sure not be lied to and you’ve gone and strayed
So I’m thinkin’ it’s ‘bout time to leave here today

I’m sad and I feel like cryin’ today
