I’m Not Gonna Cry

I’m not gonna cry anymore over you

I’m not gonna let you 

Break my poor heart in two

I’ve been down

I’ve been lonely

Feelin’ kinda blue

But I’m not gonna cry over you

Well I woke up this morning

Didn’t know what to do

My heart was aching

I was thinking about you

I was thinking about the good times

Before you said, “We’re through”

But this is for certain

One thing I’m gonna do

I’m not gonna cry anymore over you

I’m not gonna let you 

Break my poor heart in two

I’ve been down

I’ve been lonely

Feelin’ kinda blue

But I’m not gonna cry over you

Well you gave me reasons

Said it was over from the start

Said you didn’t love me

The feelings were from the heart

Then why in the world

Did you cry when we fell apart

But one thing’s for certain

Like I told you from the start

I’m not gonna cry anymore over you

I’m not gonna let you 

Break my poor heart in two

I’ve been down

I’ve been lonely

Feelin’ kinda blue

But I’m not gonna cry over you

Well you tore my heart apart

A dozen times right from the start

I knew this love of ours

In it’s time, would go sour

And I cried a thousand tears

Every time that I could hear

“It’s over”, you’d walk away

But believe me when I say

That this time it isn’t gonna be 

I’m gonna do things differently

I’m not gonna cry anymore over you

I’m not gonna let you 

Break my poor heart in two

I’ve been down

I’ve been lonely

Feelin’ kinda blue

But I’m not gonna cry over you
