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 we only bring each other pain

Chorus:
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
Nothing in this world
Could take us back
To where we used to be
And I'm giving 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
Pretending not to know the difference
Denying what we had is gone, oohh
Every moment we're together
It's just breaking me down
I know we swore forever
But it hurts too much to stay around

Chorus:
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
Nothing in this world
Could take us back
To where we used to be
And I'm giving you my heart and soul
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause baby, I don't wanna cry

All the magic's gone
There's just a shadow of a memory
Something just went wrong
We can't go on make-believing
Oh, make-believing

And I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
Nothing in this world
Could take us back
To where we used to be
And I'm giving you my heart and soul
Oh I'm giving you my heart and soul
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause baby, I don't wanna cry
Oh no, I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
