[Bb]
Every day I walk some lonely [Ab] street,
searching till you come back to [G] me.
People around stop and [Eb] stare,
as if they know the hurt I [F] bear.
[Eb] Then suddenly I realize,
[Bb] I'm crying, crying, crying,
cause I'm in a helpless situation,
[Fm] and I need some consolation,
[G] cause my mind is in confusion,
and [Eb] my heart feels much confusion.
[G] Since you been gone,
keep [Bb] me crying, crying, crying.
[Ab] In the shelter of [G] your love,
my strength I [Eb] found.
