Well I've been up, I've been down,
I've been jilted, jacked around,
Treated bad by my best friend.

So close to tears again, Not Gonna Cry Anymore,
I'm Not Gonna Cry Anymore, Oh no, Ah yes,

Tried so hard to make it right,
But you wont take no one's advice,
And you'll be sorry that you made all the hurt,

I'm turnin' round to you and sayin' goodbye,
I'm Not Gonna Cry Anymore,
I've gone all to pieces before,
I'm Not Gonna Cry Anymore, Oh, no,

Standing here, I watch you laughing at me
Tell me why?
I think it's time, I'm ready to leave,
Start a new life,
Leave all the sadness behind, yeah, yeah,

So close to tears again, I'm Not Gonna Cry
Anymore, I've gone all to pieces before, yeah, yeah,
I'm Not Gonna Cry Anymore, and I believe
In my heart I'll walk out that door,
Not Gonna Cry,
Not Gonna Cry Anymore
