(don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)

I don't want to cry

but i can't keep tears from my eyes

And when I meet friends,

I hope they don't realize

that I'm crying because I'm alone

I don't want to cry

but i can't keep tears from my eyes



my days and my night are all spend thinking of you

of places we went and things we used to do

My tears I've tried to hide

But darling how I'm hurting inside

I don't want to cry

but i can't keep tears from my eyes



Why did you have to leave me

Why did you have to go

You know I can't love another

Darling I need you so

Carry on back and wipe away all my tears

I'm in the same place right where you left me dear

I thought that I was so strong

But O darling, it looks like I'm wrong

I don't want to cry

but i can't keep tears from my eyes
