How many tears can you cry when you're sad and lonely
And how many tears can you cry when someone makes you blue
That's a question I'm still unable to answer
'Cause I can't stop my cryin' over you

How many lies can you can you count when you just can't sleep at night
And how many lies can you count before your heart is free
That's a question I'm still unable to answer
'Cause I'm still countin' the lies you told to me

There's just no end to all the broken promises that I recall
I was a fool to fall for you
It hurts to know you played a game and went and had yourself a ball
And through it all made me blue

How many tears can you cry when it all is over
And how many tears can you cry when you want someone new
That's a question I'm still unable to answer
'Cause I can't stop my love for you
