Why Did You Cry - The Foundations

I just don’t know

I thought I was onto a good thing

But how wrong can one man be?

(Fool, now that she’s gone, admit that you’re wrong)

I know I am

I thought I was big, but I just didn’t dig

What a crazy fool I’d been

Sometimes I sit and wonder why

I’ve made such a mess of my life

But underneath, I know the reason why

The reason for this strife

I’ve been a fool (Baby, you show it)

And I’ve been uncool (Baby, you know it)

But I never thought that it could turn out like this

(Fool, now that she’s gone, admit that you’re wrong)

I know I am

I thought I was big, but I just didn’t dig

What a crazy fool I’d been

Sometimes I sit and wonder why

I’ve made such a mess of my life

But underneath, I know the reason why

The reason for this strife

I’ve been a fool (Baby, you show it)

And I’ve been uncool (Baby, you know it)

But I never thought that it could turn out like this

(Boy, why did you cry? Why did you lie?)

I just don’t know

I thought I was onto a good thing

But how wrong can one man be?
