  • Around, around, around, around, around
    Around, around, around, around, around
    Around, around, around, around, around
    Around, around, around, around, around

    You took your time to come back this time
    The grass has grown under your feet
    In your absence I changed my mind
    And someone else is sitting in your seat

    I know that I said that there'd be no one else
    I know that I said I'd be true
    But baby, I burned Cupid's arrow
    And here's the short and narrow
    I've nothing left to offer you

    I'm all cried out
    You took a whole lot of loving for
    A handful of nothing
    All cried out
    It's hard to give you something when
    You're pushing and shoving me around

    So don't look surprised there was no disguise
    You knew where I stood from the start
    So stop, look around you
    You're right back where I found you
    Take back your cold and empty heart

    I'm all cried out
    You took a whole lot of loving for
    A handful of nothing
    All cried out
    It's hard to give you something when
    You're pushing and shoving me around

    I'm all cried out
    You took a whole lot of love
    I'm all cried out
    It's hard to give you something when
    You're pushing and shoving me around

    Around, around, around, around, around
    Around, around, around, around, around

    You go your way
    I'll go mine
    I won't stay around here
    Don't you waste my time

    All cried out
    You took a whole lot of loving for
    A handful of nothing
    All cried out
    It's hard to give you something when
    You're pushing and shoving

    I'm all cried out
    You took a whole lot of love
    I'm all cried out
    It's hard to give you something when
    You're pushing and shoving me around

    Around, around, around, around, around
    Around, around, around, around, around
    Around, around, around, around, around
    Around, around, around, around, around

    You go your way
    I'll go mine
    I won't stay around here
    Don't you waste my time

    All cried out (all cried out)
    You took a whole lot of loving for
    A handful of nothing
    All cried out
    You took a whole lot of love
    All cried out
    You took a whole lot of loving for
    A handful of nothing
    All cried out
    It's hard to give you something when
    You're pushing and shoving
    All cried out (all cried out)
    You took a whole lot of love
    All cried out Writer/s: Alison Moyet, Steve Jolley, Tony Swain
