I Don't Wanna Cry

[Verse 1]
We knew this day was coming
That's why we were running from it
Like we could out run it
It wasn't like we had planned it
But I understand that
We got to do what we've got to do
I know it be painful
But never this painful
Now I know what heartbreak feels like
And I'm glad you were in my life

[Chorus]
But I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna pretend
Like my feelings aren't gonna hurt
And I don't wanna lie
Look you in the eye
Tell you somehow this is gonna work
You're going away
Here is where I stay
With the memories of what it used to be
The memories of you and me
I don't wanna cry
Wanna cry
Wanna cry
Wanna cry
I don't wanna cry

[Verse 2]
Now I'm checking a review
Eyes filling with tears
You make it so hard to move on
It's not that I want to
But boy it's impossible
To love you like I want
I don't want to risk it
'Cause I know the distance
Is just bound to drive us apart
And it already breaks my heart

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna pretend
Like my feelings aren't gonna hurt
And I don't wanna lie
Look you in the eye
Tell you somehow this is gonna work
You're going away
Here is where I stay
With the memories of what it used to be
The memories of you and me

[Bridge]
I'm not saying that I'm not in love with you
(That I'm not in love with you)
Really I'm just kind of doing the right thing for you
(Doing the right thing for you)
And I gotta be the strong one
Gotta call it off baby
If you want to put the blame on me
Then that's fine with me
But I don't want to cry
We knew this day was coming
That's why we were running from it

[Chorus]
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna pretend
Like my feelings aren't gonna hurt
And I don't wanna lie
Look you in the eye
Tell you somehow this is gonna work
You're going away
Here is where I stay
With the memories of what it used to be
The memories of you and me
I don't wanna cry
But I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna pretend
Like my feelings aren't gonna hurt
And I don't wanna lie
Look you in the eye
Tell you somehow this is gonna work
You're going away
Here is where I stay
With the memories of what it used to be
The memories of you and me
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
