in my lonely room
Every single time you take me out with you  You always flirt around with someone new  But I never criticize the tearful things you do  'Cause I'm so afraid of losing you   But in my lonely room, tears I don't have to hide  'Cause I just lock my door and let myself go  And lay right down and cry   Every place we go, people are whispering  About your flirting ways, & it hurts me so to hear  But in the public's eye I just push behind all my hurt inside  And pretend i don't mind   But in my lonely room, tears I don't have to hide  In my lonely lonely lonely lonely room  I push my pride aside and lay right down & cry  In my lonely room, in my lonely room  Let myself go, lay right down and cry
