I Don't Wanna Cry lyrics

Once again we sit in silence

After all is said and done

Only emptiness inside us

Baby look what we've become

We can make a million promises

But we still won't change

It isn't right to stay together

When you only bring each other pain

[Chorus:]

I don't wanna cry

Don't wanna cry

Nothing in the world

Could take us back

To where we used to be

Though I've given you my heart and soul

I must find a way of letting go

'Cause baby

I don't wanna cry

Too far apart to bridge the distance

But something keeps us hanging on and on

Pretending not to know the difference

Denying what we had is gone

Every moment we're together

It's just breaking me down

I know we swore it was forever

But it hurts too much to stay around

[Chorus]

All the magic's gone

There's just a shadow of a memory

Something just went wrong

We can't go on make-believing

On make-believing

[Chorus]
