Intro verse 1 Mercy don’t think she’s pretty no more Starin’ at the stars through her back screen door She tries and tries to make it all work out No matter what she does She’s left standin’ in the middle of doubt Pre-Chorus In a lonely night And in the pourin’ rain    You can count on me Chorus Sometimes she cries When she’s alone at night Sometimes she weeps When she’s feelin’ cold and weak Sometimes the pain It just tears her up inside Sometimes she cries Ooh I wonder why verse 2 Mercy don’t have a lover no more She plays with her pillow Stares at the bedroom floor Used to have a million They’ve come and gone No matter what she does She can’t figure out what she’s doin’ wrong Pre-Chorus In a lonely night And in the pourin’ rain    You can count on me Chorus Sometimes she cries When she’s alone at night Sometimes she weeps When she’s feelin’ cold and weak Sometimes the pain Oh it tears her up inside Sometimes she cries Ooh yeah Bridge Livin’ lovin’ giving everything you got    After all the heartache Maybe give love just one more shot away Pre-Chorus In a lonely night And in the pourin’ rain    The only thing I really wanna know is why Chorus Sometimes she cries When she’s alone at night Sometimes she weeps When she’s feelin’ cold and weak Sometimes the pain Oh it tears her up inside Sometimes she cries Oooh yeah yeah yeah
