We started goin' out
In the heat of the summertime
Hand in hand
Walkin' in the sand
Under the hot sun
Tumbling in the cool blue waves
Salt water stinging my eyes
We kissed for the first time

You got me to believe in forever
Now you say we need more time apart

Baby, I'm cryin' tonight
Yes I'm cryin' tonight
Have mercy baby, I'm cryin' tonight

You say maybe we should see other people
Hoping that we could feel sure
But darlin' if your lips
Should ever touch anothers'
I'd be too hurt to love any more

Baby, I'm cryin' tonight
Yes I'm cryin' tonight
Have mercy baby, I'm cryin' tonight
You sold me a dream of forever
Now I'm watchin' it crumble apart

Hey, I'm cryin' tonight
Yes I'm cryin' tonight
Have mercy baby, I'm cryin' tonight
