MIGHT HAVE TO CRY
Album : "My Time"
(Boz Scaggs)

Boz Scaggs


Taxi’s lights pull out of sight
‘Round the lane and into the night
Goodbye this time, may be the last
Might have to cry, might have to lie
Might have to die a little

Evening song, didn’t last long
Dreamed I was right, sussed I was wrong
So I’ll make my way through an empty day
Might have to cry, might have to lie
Might have to die a little this time

Never believed she would leave me
I forgot about last time
When she walked out this morning
I went out of my mind

I’ll try to smile
Pretend it never happened
Leave ‘em slow but leave ‘em laughing 
I’ll try to fight, down to the last
Might have to cry, might have to lie
Might have to die… this time

Some people live and learn
Never was lucky that way
Wanted so hard to believe her
But other rains will come
And wash it all away
Other loves will come and go
You must believe me when I say
Didn’t want it that way

I’ll try to smile
Pretend it never happened
Leave ‘em slow but leave ‘em laughing 
Goodbye this time, may be the last
Might have to cry, might have to lie
Might have to die a little
