[Intro]
Oh, she kissed me soft and warm
Turned my world from grey to dawn
But then she whispered, goodbye
And I knew, oh I knew
I was born to cry
[Verse 1]
Left alone with empty sheets
Echoes of her laughter sweet
Thought I’d drown in tears so high
But found a place where lovers fly
Wanderers who lost their way
Built a home where hearts can stay
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, the joke's on her now
I’ve found my secret place somehow
A haven in my mind
Where love’s the only sign
[Chorus]
I was born to cry, but now I say
I’ve found my happy, come what may
Laughing through the pain, I’ve learned to fly
In the land for lovers who wonder why
[Bridge]
So let her go, her kiss a memory
I’ve got a place inside of me
Where joy and tears collide
In this heart, I’ve come alive
[Outro]
Yeah, I was born to cry
But now I’m smiling, flying high
Found a home where love’s free
For the lovers who still believe
