Lyrics

Crying on my Shoulder

Verse 1

I wished it had been me stood close beside you
I wished I'd been the man who said I do
Now crying on my shoulder
Deserted by that man
I'm wishing that my wishes might come true
Praying that my wishes might come true

Deserted by a man stood close beside you
Rejected by the one who said I will
Your crying on my shoulder
Reminds me once again
Of love for you that burns inside me still
Chorus
The love that burns inside me still
Is love from younger days
True love that never left my heart
When we went separate ways
Separate ways that young ones take
To make their mark outside
To find out how the big world shapes
Our destiny and pride

Verse 2

I never had things men like him could offer
And none of the charisma of those few
Now crying on my shoulder
Deserted by your man
I'm wishing that my wishes might come true
Praying that my wishes might come true

Remembering all the things we did together
Recalling how we shared a common will
Your crying on my shoulder
Reminds me once again
Of love for you that burns inside me still

Chorus
The love that burns inside me still
Is love from younger days
True love that never left my heart
When we went separate ways
Separate ways that young ones take
To make their mark outside
To find out how the big world shapes
Our destiny and pride

Verse 3
I've done a thing or two since I last saw you
A thing or two to lift my goals and pride
Now crying on my shoulder
Deserted by your man
I've destiny I hope you'll stand beside
Destiny you'll proudly stand beside

Chorus
The love that burns inside me still
Is love from younger days
True love that never left my heart
When we went separate ways
Separate ways that young ones take
To make their mark outside
To find out how the big world shapes
Our destiny and pride



Bridge
Yes I've done a thing or two since I last saw you
A thing or two to lift my goals and pride
Now crying on my shoulder
Deserted by your man
I've destiny I hope you'll stand beside
Destiny you'll proudly stand beside

Now crying on my shoulder
Deserted by your man
I've destiny I know
Destiny I know
Destiny I know
You'll proudly stand beside
