I'VE CRIED (Pete Ham)
[from "Keyhole Street: Demos 1966-67"]

Happiness is hard to get
I tried and tried not to let you go (let you go)
You walked away that sunny day
And my heart you took away
You know (don't you know)

I made you think I didn't care
What you did to me
But deep inside my heart, babe
The tears were flowing free

I've cried, ever since you went away
I've cried, couldn't face another day
Walk right back to me, baby, please
Only you can wash away these tears

I thought I'd get you off my mind
Another girl, I would find for me (find for me)
Checked in any thoughts of you
Anything to do with you and me (you and me)
I can't go on, baby
Living in this way
Waiting for the hour
When you come back to stay

I've cried, ever since you went away
I've cried, couldn't face another day
Walk right back to me, baby, please
(Walk right back to me, baby, please)
Only you can wash away these tears

I've cried, ever since you went away
I've cried, couldn't face another day
Walk right back to me, baby, please.
