If I had just one tear
Running down your cheek
Maybe I could cope
Maybe I'd get some sleep.

If I had just one moment
At your expense
Maybe all my misery
Would be well spent.

Could you cry a little? 
Lie just a little?
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain?
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me.

If your love could be caged
Honey I would hold the key
And conceal it underneath 
The pile of lies you handed me.

And you'd hunt and those lies -
They'd be all you'd ever find
And that'd be all you'd have to know 
For me to be fine.

And you'd cry just a little
You'd die just a little
And baby I would feel
Just a little less pain
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me.

Give it up baby
I hear you're doing fine
Nothing's gonna save me
I can see it in your eyes
Some kind of heartache
Honey, give it a try
I don't want pity
I just want what is mine.

Could you cry a little? 
Lie just a little?
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain?
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me.

And you'd cry just a little
You'd die just a little
And baby I would feel
Just a little less pain
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me.
