I laughed the day I saw you leave I laughed and said I'd never grieve But now after my laughter came tears (After my laughter came tears) I told my friends I didn't care I laughed about our whole affair But say now after my laughter came tears (Came tears, came tears) My pride kept me from showin' them that I was blue (I was blue) By myself you'll never know what I've been through (Just what I'm goin' through) My lips conceal a hurtin' pain I make believe but all in vain I said now after my laughter came tears (After my laughter came tears) My pride kept me from showin' them that I was blue (I was blue) By myself you'll never know what I've been through (Just what I'm goin' through) My lips conceal a hurtin' pain I make believe but all in vain I said now after my laughter came tears (Came tears, came tears)
