[Verse 1]
Look at you
I can't believe my eyes
Still walking ’round here feeling sorry for yourself
Did you think when he broke your heart
That it never happened to nobody else
Yes, I know he hurt you so
You feel like your world has ended
That your heart cannot be mended
So you hide away inside your lonely room
I'll tell you what to do

[Chorus]
You gotta rise up, wake up
Put on some make-up
C'mon and try your love again
You gotta stop your crying
Dry up your eyes and try your love again
What’s the use of staying home alone
Talking to your sister on the telephone
When you can get up and go out
Try your love again

[Verse 2]
You say no
You say you're through with love
'Cause you tried it once and all you got was burned
There's a chance when you give your heart
That you're gonna get a heartache in return
But there's a chance you're gonna win
And when you do there's nothing like it
Can’t believe how rich you strike it
Don’t regret, c'mon and bet your love on me
Oh baby, can’t you see
[Chorus]
You gotta rise up, wake up
Put on some make-up
C'mon and try your love again
You gotta stop your crying
Dry up your eyes and try your love again
What's the use of staying home alone
Talking to your sister on the telephone
When you can get up and go out
Try your love again

[Bridge]
Hey I don't want to see you giving in
Just let me hold you, let it start
I believe there’s still love living in your heart

[Saxophone solo]

[Chorus]
What's the use in staying home alone
Talking to your sister on the telephone
When you can get up and go out
Try your love
Rise up, wake up
Put on some make-up
C'mon and try your love again
You gotta stop your crying
Dry up your eyes and try your love again
What's the use of staying home alone
Talking to your sister on the telephone
When you can get up and go out
Try your love
Get up rise up
Put on some make-up...
