Well, cheat on, have your fun
But to your own self, the most damage is done
When your cheatin' days are over
Don't come runnin', don't come runnin' back to me

You've hurt my heart a lot of it's true
But I'm not angry, I just feel sorry for you
So when your cheatin' days are over
I don't want you to come runnin', don't come runnin' back to me

You're gonna be sorry, just you wait and see
Oh, one day you'll wake up and cry out, yeah, for me
Then you'll have a chance to meet life face to face
And search for peace of mind but find that it's no place
I still love you I confess but I've got to think of my own happiness

So when you're cheatin' days are over
Don't come runnin' back to me
I said don't come runnin'
No, don't come runnin' back to me
