VERSE

I would say

I'm sorry if I thought that it would change

your mind

But I know that this time

I have said

too much,

been too unkind I try to laugh

about it, cover it all up with lies

I try to laugh about it, Hiding the tears in my

eyes, cause boys don't cry

Boys, don't

cry

VERSE

I would break down at your feet

and beg forgiveness, plead

with you

But I know that it's too late

and now

there's nothing I can do

So I try to laugh about it,

cover

it all up with lies I try to laugh

about it, hiding the tears in my eyes, cause

boys don't cry.

Boys don't cry.

VERSE

I

would tell you

that

I loved you if I thought that you would stay,

but I know that it's no use that you've already gone away.

Misjudged your limit

pushed you too far,

took you for granted, thought that you needed me

more, more, more now I would do most anything

to get

you back by my side.

But I just keep on laughing,

hiding

the tears in my eyes, Cause boys,

don't cry.

Boys don't cry.

Boys don't cry.
