It’s Easier to Cry Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They say, "Forget about him"
"You're better off without him"
"Go out and find yourself"
"Another guy"

[Chorus]
But I love him so
I can't forget him
No, no (no, no)
It's easier to cry (easier to cry)

[Verse 2]
(Oooh) They say, "Stop thinking of him"
(Oooh) "You really didn't love him"
"He was just something"
"You had to try"

[Chorus]
But I miss him so
Can't forget him
No, no (no, no)
It's easier to cry (easier to cry)

[Bridge]
Ahhh ahhh
Ahhh ahhh
[Verse 3]
(oooh) They say, "No use in crying"
(oooh) "A girls got to keep on trying"
But if he doesn't come back
I'll just die

[Chorus]
'Cause I need him so
I can't forget him
No, no (no, no)
It's easier to cry (easier to cry)

[Outro]
Much easier to cry (easier)
No, no, no (to cry)
I can't forget him (easier)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
