Say you're sorry

You still care

She came by my place again

Cryin' about you man

You should love her

Twice as much

I try to remember you're a friend

But it's gettin' a little rough

[1st chorus]

She's just tired

Of bein' cinderella

She can't live that way no more

She needs a little affection

A little understanding

You better be careful 'cause the next time she comes to my door

She won't be a cinderella no more

A teardrop trembled

On her face

Where that smile always was

It seemed out of place

And when I held her

Like a friend

I could feel a sweet beginning

But taste a bitter end

[2nd chorus]

She's just tired

Of bein' cinderella

She can't live that way no more

She needs a little affection

A little understanding

You better be careful 'cause the next time she comes to my door

You'll be sorry

'cause it seems like

It's always something with you

And everybody's always wrong

One of these nights

You'll reach for the pillow she sleeps on

And she's gonna be gone

[2nd chorus]
