Never Gonna Break My Heart Again

Deborah Cox · Deborah Cox

You never cared how much you've hurt me, baby
You never cared how much I've cried
Baby, I gave my heart to you
You just walked away
Now you've come back
And now you wanna stay

But you're never gonna make me cry again, again
And you're never gonna break my heart again
Like you did...then
And you're never gonna make me cry
And you're never gonna break my heart again

What made you think that I'll forgive you, baby
What made you think that I'll forget
And let you just walk back in my world
Well I've closed the door
Can't let you in
No, baby, anymore

'Cause you're never gonna make me cry again, again
And you're never gonna break my heart again
Like you did...then
And you're never gonna make me cry
And you're never gonna break my heart again

You had your dance, one last chance
There's no more for you, baby
So don't walk through that door
You're not welcomed no more

And you're never gonna make me cry again, again
And you're never gonna break my heart again
Like you did, yea, baby
No, no, no, no
Never gonna make me cry again, oh no
You're never gonna break my heart again
Just like you did, baby...then
No, you're never gonna make me cry
And you're never gonna break my heart...Again
