And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by
Make believe that you don't see the tears
Oh just let me grieve
In private 'cause each time I see you
I break down and cry
Oh baby, walk on by
Mmm
I just can't get over losing you
So if I seem broken in two
Please walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
You put the hurt on
You socked it to me, momma
When you said goodbye
So please walk on by
Make believe you never see the tears I cry
So do me a favor and walk on by
So I'm beggin' you to walk on by
Oh yeah
Make believe you never see the tears I cry
So I'm beggin' you, I'm beggin' you to walk on by
Make believe you never see the tears I cry
Oh, there's no dirt in my eye
Oh no
Smoking don't you me cry no no no [?]
It's the hurt you put on me, yeah
I don't want you to see this man cry
So please walk on by
Oh mother, mother, walk on by
If you see me walking down the street And I start to cry each time we meet Walk on by, walk on by Make believe that you don't see the tears Oh just let me grieve In private 'cause each time I see you I break down and cry Oh baby, walk on by Mmm I just can't get over losing you So if I seem broken in two Please walk on by, walk on by Foolish pride is all that I have left So let me hide The tears and the sadness you gave me You put the hurt on You socked it to me, momma When you said goodbye So please walk on by Make believe you never see the tears I cry So do me a favor and walk on by So I'm beggin' you to walk on by Oh yeah Make believe you never see the tears I cry So I'm beggin' you, I'm beggin' you to walk on by Make believe you never see the tears I cry Oh, there's no dirt in my eye Oh no Smoking don't you me cry no no no [?] It's the hurt you put on me, yeah I don't want you to see this man cry So please walk on by Oh mother, mother, walk on by Explain Request ×
