"It Tears Me Up" lyrics

"It Tears Me Up"
(originally by Percy Sledge)

I see you walk with him
I see you talk to him
It tears me up
It tears me up
And starts my eyes to crying
Oh, I can't stop crying

I see him kiss your lips
And squeeze your fingertips
And it tears me up
It tears me up
I feel just like I'm dying
Oh, I must be dying

It's a cold, cold world I'm living in
I turn my back and there you are with my best friend
Oh, and sometimes we pass on the street, darling
And you look at me and you say, "I'm sorry, my sweet."
Oh, you know and maybe saying "I'm sorry" would be enough
But then you look back at him with your perfect smile
And that'd make me feel kind of rough
Oh, it tears me up

I see you smile at him
You'll never tire of him
It tears me up
It tears me up
But there ain't nothing I can do now
Oh, baby, can't you see I'm still in love with you?
Oh, can't you see I'm still in love with you, baby?

I'm still waiting for something that I cannot have
And it tears me up
Oh, can't you see I'm still in love with you?
Oh, I see you look at him with that perfect smile
And that'd make me feel kind of rough
And it tears me up
