Too many nights
Too many tears
Too many years

Too many nights I`ve waited around for you
As the nights turn into weeks, I couldn`t even sleep
Too many tears I`ve cried but now I`m through
I`m ready to dry my eyes again, this time I won`t pretend

I thought that I could make it on my own
And the thought of starting over again
Scared me into staying here with you
Long after all the heartache began
I`m through with waiting in an empty bed
One for dinner when it should be two
I`m tired of holding back what should be said
I`m gonna let it go and stand up to you

Hey, too many nights I`ve waited around for you
As the nights turn into weeks, I couldn`t even sleep
Too many tears I`ve cried but now I`m through
I`m ready to dry my eyes again, this time I won`t pretend

My pride was swallowed one too many times
I`ve kept on turning my back on the truth
Now I`m as serious as a heart attack
`Coz I`ve decided baby, we`re through
I`m growing stronger from experience
The woman in me`s taking a stand
You taught me good, I learned my lesson well
And I`m never gonna let it happen again, no

Too many nights I`ve waited around for you
As the nights turn into weeks, I couldn`t even sleep
Too many tears I`ve cried but now I`m through
I`m ready to dry my eyes again, this time I won`t pretend

I`m gonna turn the page
Put heartache in the past
I gotta think about getting strong
And I`ll put all those memories on the shelf
And make the space for someone else

(Too many nights I`ve waited around for you)
Too many nights
(Too many nights)
Too many nights
Hey, too many tears I`ve cried but now I`m through
(I`m through)
I`m ready to dry my eyes again, this time I won`t pretend

Too many nights I`ve waited around for you
I`ve waited around for you
As the nights turn into weeks, I couldn`t even sleep
Too many tears I`ve cried but now I`m through
I cried, cried, cried
Too many nights
Too many tears
Too many years
