I Cried For You
Composer(s): Gus Arnheim; Arthur Freed; Abe Lyman
First release by: Benny Krueger & His Orch. (instrumental) - 1923
Covered by multiple other artists
I remember other days, how I used to weep
Over things you said to me, I couldn't even sleep
You forgot your promises ev'ry single vow
All you did was laugh at me but things are diff'rent now
I cried for you
Now it's your turn to cry over me
Ev'ry road has a turning
That's one thing you're learning
I cried for you
What a fool I used to be
Now I found two eyes just a little bit bluer
I found a heart just a little bit truer
I cried for you
Now it's your turn to cry over me
How can I forget the hours that I worried through
Wondering the live-long day just what next thing to do
In those days you never thought anything of me
But the slave that was all yours and now at last is free
I cried for you
Now it's your turn to cry over me
Ev'ry road has a turning
That's one thing you're learning
I cried for you
What a fool I used to be
Now I found two eyes just a little bit bluer
I found a heart just a little bit truer
I cried for you
Now it's your turn to cry over me
