I remember the afternoon,

when you left me alone and blue.

Although there were sometimes

when I felt you were untrue.

I could tell by the look in your eyes.

You were telling me one of your lies.

Nothing’s ever the same and

you treat me oh so cruel.



CHORUS

I can’t cry, I can’t cry.

Couldn’t go back to how it was.

And you walked off, leaving me alone.

So many days,

hanging to love when it was over long ago.

Now I must stop, loving you again.



Tell me what do you want me to do?

Just sit and cry here alone like a fool.

When you come home and I’m all alone again.



CHORUS

There’s no hope, hanging on,

when there’s nothing left for me.

I won’t show, the pain in my broken heart.

Silently, I’ll leave the pain and the hurt all behind.



CHORUS

I can’t cry, I can’t cry.

Couldn’t go back to how it was.

And you walked off, leaving me alone.

I can’t cry, I can’t cry, when it was over long ago.

Now I must stop loving you again.
