[Verse 1]
Your love is like a chunk of gold, mmm, mmm
Hard to gain, and hard to hold, mmm, mmm
Like a rose that's soft to touch, mmm, mmm
Love has thorns that hurt so much, mmm

[Chorus]
Well and why...
Must the same love that made me laugh make me cry? Mmm

[Bridge]
Well now, you think of love as sitting on a mountain
Think of it as being a great big rock
Won't you think before you started to roll it down
Because once you start it, you can't make it stop, nah

[Verse 2]
I've given all I have to give, mhm
And if you don't want me, I don't wanna live

[Chorus]
Well and why...
Must the same love that made me laugh make me cry? Mmm

[Outro]
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me wet my pillow?
I'm just cryin' like a weeping willow
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry?
Why you wanna make me cry?
