Lyrics I Don't Wanna Cry - Mariah Carey

Ooh, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Once again we sit in silence
After all is said and done
Only emptiness inside us
Baby, look what we've become, oh

We can make a million promises, but we still won't change
It isn't right to stay together, when you only bring each other pain

I don't wanna cry
Don't wanna cry
Nothing in the world could take us back
To where we used to be
Though I've given you my heart and soul
(Given you my heart and soul)
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause, baby, I don't wanna cry

Ooh, I don't wanna cry
Hey, yeah, yeah

Too far apart to bridge the distance
But something keeps us hangin' on and on
Pretending not to know the difference
Denying what we had is gone

Every moment we're together, it's just breaking me down
I know we swore it was forever, but it hurts too much to stay around

I don't wanna cry
Don't wanna cry
Nothing in the world could take us back
To where we used to be
Though I've given you my heart and soul
(Given you my heart and soul) ooh-ooh
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause, baby, I don't wanna cry

Ooh, I don't wanna cry, no, no, oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

All the magic's gone, there's just a shadow of a memory
Something just went wrong, we can't go on make-believing
On make-believing

'Cause I don't wanna cry
Don't wanna cry
Nothing in the world could take us back
To where we used to be
Though I've given you my heart and soul
(Given you my heart and soul) ooh, yeah
And I've given you my heart and soul
(Given you my heart and soul) ooh, baby
I must find a way of letting go
'Cause, baby, I don't wanna cry

Ooh-oh, cry
I don't wanna cry
Mm-mm, I don't wanna cry
