Lace - I Cry Real Tears lyrics

(Linda Thompson/Reed Vertelney)

You ought to be ashamed of yourself

The way you talk down to me

Oh baby, didn't anybody ever teach you

To act more respectfully

I'm telling you

That I'm only human too

Don't you realize

Look my face

What do you see in my eyes

When a part of me just dies

I cry real tears

I have real fears

I've got a heart that's beating inside

Sometimes it breaks

And when it aches

My eyes cry real tears

You treat me like you think I'm made of stone

Like when I'm cut I don't bleed

Oh baby, don't you know that I'm just flesh and bone

So what do you want from me

I'm telling you

That I'm only human too

Don't you realize

Just look at my face

What do you see in my eyes

When a part of me just dies

I cry real tears

I have real fears

I've got a heart that's beating inside

Sometimes it breaks

And when it aches

My eyes cry real tears

There's something called the Golden Rule

Someday you'll wish you followed it more

You've been a fool

My love is truer than any love you will find

But I'm worth so much more and so is my time

I cry real tears

I have real fears

I've got a heart that's beating inside

Sometimes it breaks

And when it aches

My eyes cry real tears

I cry real tears

I have real fears

I've got a heart that's beating inside

Sometimes it breaks

And when it aches

My eyes cry real tears

Every little teardrop that falls from my eyes falls for you baby

You ought to be ashamed of yourself
