Cry Myself To Sleep

Lyrics

I've been thinking 'bout you lately
Everywhere I go
And you know it seems that maybe
You would want to know
That I could be who you want me to be
So won't you please give me a try?
 
Or else I'll cry myself to sleep
 
Everytime you walk on by me
I just lose control
And it seems to me that maybe
You would want to know
That I could be who you want me to be
So won't you please give me a try?
 
Everything's all right
When you are around
And every single night
You're out on the town
With somebody else
So I'll cry myself to sleep

Miscellaneous Info

This is another song that I wrote the music for back when I was 19 or 20. I played it one day during a sound check and Joe said that he like it. So, we played it at the next practice and it became a part of our setlist. The lyrics were never really "written" down, so whatever I adlibbed at that first practice became cemented to the music. That explains the complete lack of grammatical structure.
 
Joe's bass playing on this is stellar and I love the growly tone of his Rickenbacker. Oh, and yes, I'm aware that I totally ripped off the Beatles "She's a Woman" in the verses. Amazing how they can pretty much own one chord, isn't it?
