Why Cry, Pretty Vanessa?
Why cry, pretty Vanessa?
Why stay away?
Nothing that I did for you
Could ever make you content.
You felt that you would be better off without me,
Yet I still see you crying.
.
Starting a new life on your own
Hasn’t brought you happiness or prosperity.
Don’t be so stubborn.
You know how my heart is aching
Since you ran away from me.
.
The door to my love is always open,
But you refuse to enter.
I didn’t push you away.
You chose to go.
And nothing would make me happier
Than to have you back in my arms.
.
Something tells me that you still love me,
And my love for you hasn’t died.
You can come back whenever you want.
So why cry, pretty Vanessa?
Why stay away?
