A Shoulder To Cry On
on your way you've caused some devastation, counting hearts you could break
mine was one among so many such broken hearts you've laughed-and-left in your wake
every one you've treated with indifference, made them feel asinine
let me tell you now - somewhere down the line
you'll need a shoulder to cry on, but it won't be mine
some sweet day you'll see the tables turning, eyeballs stinging with brine
that will be such sweet revenge and divine
you'll need a shoulder to cry on, but it won't be mine
some day you will want me, that day could be soon
that day you'll be crying for the moon
some day you'll be aching to say how it hurts
that day you'll have got your just deserts
someone soon will teach you a good lesson and you'll whinge and you'll whine
as your heart is tumbling down that incline
you'll need a shoulder to cry on, but it won't be mine
no, no, no
you'll need a shoulder to cry on, but it won't be mine
