Don't Come Cryin' to Me feat. Dawn Sears
Vince Gill · The Key [MCA] [1998]
Vince Gill & Dawn Sears
Don't come cryin' to me when it's over
Don't you come knockin' at my door
Don't come cryin' to me I won't be waiting
Like I've done a hundred times before.
You promised you'd love me forever
Now it's all over town you've changed your mind
You'll call me and say let's get together
But I'm sorry I won't take you back this time.
Don't come cryin' to me when it's over
Don't you come knockin' at my door
Don't come cryin' to me I won't be waiting
Like I've done a hundred times before.
--- Instrumental ---
Don't come cryin' to me when it's over
Don't you come knockin' at my door
Don't come cryin' to me I won't be waiting
Like I've done a hundred times before.
Like I've done a hundred times before...
