I Won't Cry
Busking in the subway
Barely getting by
Singing songs for freedom
But they never let me fly
Ooh, won't let me fly
So I pack it on up with me
Take it where ever I go
Your memory won't leave me
Till it haunts me like a ghost
Ooh, just like a ghost
What I paid in tears
You returned me with lies
Thinking you could break me
And Lord knows you tried
Now here I am as you tell me goodbye
But no, no I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry, ooh
So you think you're irreplaceable
Think you're so unique
Well I've met a hundred like you
Who lie and steal and cheat
Ooh, you're weak
But I won't let the dirt
Ruin this diamond
Even when it's dark I'm still
The one that's shining
Ooh baby baby
I'm shining, oh
What I paid in tears
You returned me with lies
Thinking you could break me
And Lord knows you tried
Now here I am as you tell me goodbye
But no, no I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry
Now you're passing me
With the girl
You said don't worry 'bout
That's where I draw the line
I ain't no fool
Buying your run around
What I paid in tears
You returned me with lies
Thinking you could break me
And Lord knows you tried
Now here I am as you tell me goodbye
But no, no I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry, ooh
Barely getting by
Singing songs for freedom
But they never let me fly
Ooh, won't let me fly
So I pack it on up with me
Take it where ever I go
Your memory won't leave me
Till it haunts me like a ghost
Ooh, just like a ghost
What I paid in tears
You returned me with lies
Thinking you could break me
And Lord knows you tried
Now here I am as you tell me goodbye
But no, no I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry, ooh
So you think you're irreplaceable
Think you're so unique
Well I've met a hundred like you
Who lie and steal and cheat
Ooh, you're weak
But I won't let the dirt
Ruin this diamond
Even when it's dark I'm still
The one that's shining
Ooh baby baby
I'm shining, oh
What I paid in tears
You returned me with lies
Thinking you could break me
And Lord knows you tried
Now here I am as you tell me goodbye
But no, no I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry
Now you're passing me
With the girl
You said don't worry 'bout
That's where I draw the line
I ain't no fool
Buying your run around
What I paid in tears
You returned me with lies
Thinking you could break me
And Lord knows you tried
Now here I am as you tell me goodbye
But no, no I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry
I won't cry, ooh
