| [Verse 1] While all the time that I was loving you You were busy loving yourself I would stop breathing if you told me to Now you're busy loving someone else [Pre-Chorus] Eleven years out of my life Besides the kids, I have nothing to show Wasted my years, a fool of a wife I should have left your ass a long time ago [Chorus] Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry I'm not gon' shed no tears No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time 'Cause you're not worth my tears (Can't do it) Well, I'm not gon' cry (I said I can't do it), I'm not gon' cry I'm not gon' shed no tears (You were never worth my tears) No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time 'Cause you're not worth my tears [Verse 2] I was your lover and your secretary Working every day of the week Was at the job when no one else was there Helping you get on your feet [Pre-Chorus] Eleven years I've sacrificed And you can leave me at the drop of a dime Swallowed my fears, stood by your side I should've left your ass a thousand times [Chorus] Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry I'm not gon' shed no tears (I deserve better) No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time 'Cause you're not worth my tears (Never gonna shed a tear, no) Well, I'm not gon' cry (I said I can't do it), I'm not gon' cry I'm not gon' shed no tears (I'm not gonna cry no more) No, I'm not gon' cry (No, no, no, no), it's not the time 'Cause you're not worth my tears [Bridge] I know there are no guarantees (Guarantees) In love, you take your chances (Don't take chances) But somehow it seems unfair to me (So unfair) Look at the circumstances Through sickness and health, 'til death do us part Those were the words that we said from our hearts So now when you say that you're leaving me I don't get that part [Verse 3] I was your lover and your secretary Working every day of the week Was at the job when no one else was there Helping you get on your feet [Pre-Chorus] Eleven years I've sacrificed And you can leave me at the drop of a dime Swallowed my fears, stood by your side I should have left your ass a thousand times [Chorus] Well, I'm not gon' cry (Again, and again, and again), I'm not gon' cry (I said I should've been gone, gone, gone, gone) I'm not gon' shed no tears No, I'm not gon' cry (I'm not gonna cry), it's not the time (It's not worth the time) 'Cause you're not worth my tears Well, I'm not gon' cry (I'm not gonna shed a tear 'cause you lied) I'm not gon' cry I'm not gon' shed no tears (I'm not gonna cry) No, I'm not gon' cry (I said I can't do it) It's not the time 'Cause you're not worth my tears (You were never worth my tears) [Outro] Well, I'm not gon' cry (No, I'm not gonna cry) I'm not gon' cry I'm not gon' shed no tears (All the tears I cried) No, I'm not gon' cry It's not the time (I'm not gonna shed a tear) 'Cause you're not worth my tears (But you're wrong) Well, I'm not gon' cry (But you're wrong), I'm not gon' cry (You're wrong) I'm not gon' shed no tears (I'm not gonna shed a tear) No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time 'Cause you're not worth my tears |
