Yes, it's, hopeless
Yes, it's so hopeless
Cause you're not
Coming back anymore
Oh, I tried
Yes, I tried, to forget you
I've tried running around
But I find
That it's hopeless
Yes, it's hopeless
I just can't get you
Out of my mind
I keep telling my heart
That I'm lucky
That I'm much better off
All alone
But it's hopeless
It's just hopeless
Cause my heart has
A mind of it's own
I walk away the nights
Until the city lights
Fade into another lonely day
I still can't go to bed
I walk some more instead
But I just can't walk those blues away
I keep praying that you'll change your mind, dear
And I'll see your sweet face at the door
But it's hopeless
Yes, it's so hopeless
Cause you're not
Coming back anymore
Yes, it's so hopeless
Yes, it's so hopeless
Cause you're not
Coming back anymore
Oh, I tried
Yes, I tried, to forget you
I've tried running around
But I find
That it's hopeless
Yes, it's hopeless
I just can't get you
Out of my mind
I keep telling my heart
That I'm lucky
That I'm much better off
All alone
But it's hopeless
It's just hopeless
Cause my heart has
A mind of it's own
I walk away the nights
Until the city lights
Fade into another lonely day
I still can't go to bed
I walk some more instead
But I just can't walk those blues away
I keep praying that you'll change your mind, dear
And I'll see your sweet face at the door
But it's hopeless
Yes, it's so hopeless
Cause you're not
Coming back anymore
Yes, it's so hopeless

How can I make him love me? (Love me)
What can I do, what can I say, that will make him wanna stay?
How can I make him need me? (Need me)
Need only me, there by his side, just to comfort and to guide
Time and time again, I've tried to tell my heart
That he'll wake up and see, that we should never be apart
How can I make him love me? (Love me)
I've tried so hard, I've done my best, only fate can do the rest
What can I do, what can I say, that will make him wanna stay?
How can I make him need me? (Need me)
Need only me, there by his side, just to comfort and to guide
Time and time again, I've tried to tell my heart
That he'll wake up and see, that we should never be apart
How can I make him love me? (Love me)
I've tried so hard, I've done my best, only fate can do the rest

Well you're my friend and I remember when I told you
I wish that he would come back home to stay
You put your arm round my shoulder
Said I was much better off this way
But tell me now
How come, my heart is breakin'
And a, how come, my body's achin'
And a, how come, you've been seein' him every night, every night!
Woah, how come!
You said guy's like him were just a dime-a-dozen
And you were sure that he was cheatin', on the sly
You told me, I should forget him
And I was lucky that he said goodbye
Now I wonder
How come, you know so much about it
And a, how come, you wanted me without him
And a, how come, you've been seein' him every night, every night!
Woah, how come!
(How come)
(How come)
(How come)
Well a, well a, how come!
(How come)
My heart is breakin'!
How come!
(How come)
My body's achin'!
How come!
(How come)
You know so much about it!
How come!
(How come)
You wanted me without him!
How come!
(How come)
I just shake all over!
How come!
(How come)
I just can't stop cryin'!
How come!
(How come)
Hey, hey, hey!
How come!
(How come)
Hey, hey, hey!
I wish that he would come back home to stay
You put your arm round my shoulder

How does it feel when you're left standing out in the cold?
How does it feel when you don't have nobody to hold?
I wanna know, does it really, really hurt you so?
Are you crying? Are you dying?
Do you want her, like I wanted you before?
How does it feel to just stare at the ceiling all night?
How do you feel knowing someone is holding her tight?
Please tell me true, are you really, really feeling blue?
Do you miss her, wanna kiss her?
Do you need her, like I needed you before?
When you walked out on me, I felt like you're feeling now
But I'd take you back again 'cause I still love you, anyhow
[Instrumental]

Many years you have lingered around my cabin door
Oh hard times come again no more
Oh hard times come again no more
Oh hush-a-bye hard times, go ye away
Cause my hungry baby wants a Gingerbread cake
Not a cow in the barn yard, no money to spend
Not an egg in the hayloft, no little red hen
So, hush-a-bye baby don't cry no more
Your mama can't give you what you're crying for
There's a wolf at the door with an angry
cold hungry stare
He keeps howling of hard times
And the cupboard is bare
Oh, hush-a-bye hard times go ye to rest
Cause my ragged baby wants a new ruffled dress
And she wants some new shoes with buckles to wear
And she wants some silver bows for her golden hair
So, hush-a-bye baby don't cry no more
Your mama can't give you what you're crying for
There's a wolf at the door with an angry cold hungry stare
He keeps howling of hard times
And the cupboard is bare
So, hush-a-bye baby don't cry no more
Your mama can't give you what you're crying for
Hush-a-bye hard times, go ye away
I don't intend to be treated this way
So, hush-a-bye baby
Hush-a-bye hard times
Hush-a-bye baby
Don't cry no more
Hush-a-bye hard times
Hush-a-bye baby
Hush-a-bye hard times
Come ye no more
Many years you have lingered around my cabin door
Hush-a-bye hard times
Come ye no more
Hush-a-bye baby
Hush-a-bye hard times
Hush-a-bye baby
Don't cry no more
Hush-a-bye hard times
Hush-a-bye baby
Hush-a-bye hard times
Come ye no more
Oh hard times come again no more
Oh hard times come again no more
Oh hush-a-bye hard times, go ye away
Cause my hungry baby wants a Gingerbread cake
Not a cow in the barn yard, no money to spend
Not an egg in the hayloft, no little red hen
So, hush-a-bye baby don't cry no more
Your mama can't give you what you're crying for
There's a wolf at the door with an angry
