Shirley Bassey - Only When I Laugh lyrics
[Shirley Bassey - Only When I Laugh lyrics]
So, it's finally over
Had to happen, but no big deal
After all of that, off again and on
What else is new? Well, I say
Will you catch me crying? Not this kid
Will I soon forget you? I just did
Does it really hurt me? Only when I laugh
Is my heart finally numb yet?
Yeah, I don't think I feel one thing
After too long of running cold and hot
And cold, you end up blue
So, I'll just change things on my mailbox
Suit's me fine
And since you've gone on your way
I'll go mine
Does it really hurt me? Only when I laugh
Every time I fell in love
I never fell completely
The joke is, I was saving something
For the person that I thought was you
Well, I guess I was dreaming
Glad the fantasy's dead and gone
And if my mind keeps running back and forth
And back and forth don't take that as a clue
It was a minor operation, I pulled through
Opened up my life and took out you
My only scar's a heart that's
Neatly torn in half
Does it really hurt me? Only when I laugh
Had to happen, but no big deal
After all of that, off again and on
What else is new? Well, I say
Will you catch me crying? Not this kid
Will I soon forget you? I just did
Does it really hurt me? Only when I laugh
Is my heart finally numb yet?
Yeah, I don't think I feel one thing
After too long of running cold and hot
And cold, you end up blue
So, I'll just change things on my mailbox
Suit's me fine
And since you've gone on your way
I'll go mine
Does it really hurt me? Only when I laugh
Every time I fell in love
I never fell completely
The joke is, I was saving something
For the person that I thought was you
Well, I guess I was dreaming
Glad the fantasy's dead and gone
And if my mind keeps running back and forth
And back and forth don't take that as a clue
It was a minor operation, I pulled through
Opened up my life and took out you
My only scar's a heart that's
Neatly torn in half
Does it really hurt me? Only when I laugh
