Monkees While I Cry
by Michael Nesmith They told me what you'd do If I ever stayed with you, They told me that you'd laugh while I cried, They told me what you'd say, That you'd turn and walk away And find another place to play while I cried. Now I think back on those times I didn't read between the lines, How all the things that you said Never seemed to match the things you did. SOLO Thoughts keep turning round in my mind, Now I see reason and rhyme, Time spent with you has brought me something And I've lost nothing if you are that kind, ahhhhh... They told me what you'd do If I ever stayed with you, And sure enough, it all came true.
