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
