I laughed the day I saw you leave
I laughed and said, I'd never grieve
But now after my laughter came tears
(After my laughter came tears )
I told my friends, I didn't care
I laughed about a whole affair
But say now
After my laughter came tears
My cryin' helped me from showin' them
That I was blue
(Listen )
By myself you
l never know what I've been through
(Just what I'm goin' through )
My lips conceal a hurtin' pain
I make believe but all in vain
I said now after
My cryin' helped me from showin' them
That I was blue
My cryin' helped me from showin' them
That I was blue
My lips conceal a hurtin' pain
I make believe but all in vain
