Third World – I Wake Up Crying lyrics

By Burt Bacharach and Hal David

(Chorus "A")
Save me save me save me save me
Baby won't you save me
From this misery

(Chorus "B")
Save me, won't you, won't you, save me
Baby won't you save me
From this misery

I wake up crying
After tossing and turning
And yearning the whole night long
Pretty baby since you went away
I haven't spent a happy day

I wake up crying after
Sobbing and sighing and wondering
Just what went wrong
Pretty baby I was good to you
Why you gone and make me blue

I need your love to light up the night
I need your heart to make things right
I'm so unhappy on my own
Don't, don't leave me sad and lonely

(Chorus "A" & "B")

I wake up crying
After tossing and turning
And yearning the whole night long
Pretty baby please come back to me
Save me from this misery

Oh I need your love to light up the night
I and I heart to make things alright
I'm so unhappy on my own
Don't, don't leave me sad and lonely

(Choruses "A" & "B")
