Ain't Gonna Cry No More

Monica · Super Hits [2008]

da da da da dum

um um

yeah yeah, oh, ho oh oh

oh wo

um, can I talk to you for a minute?



[VERSE 1:]

inseparable, that's how we were

through anything, you were my world

i gave to you, you shared with me

for the love of you, i'd give anything

i would chill with you

you and your crew

never complained 'bout the things you do

but i see it now, how it all went down

can't take no more

don't want you around



[HOOK 1]

never told me the whole truth

now i'm wishing that i knew

the real you...

how could you do this to me?

never hurt so much

i see, plans i made for you and me

they can't be...

these are the last tears that you'll see from me



[CHORUS]

cause i ain't gonna cry no more

cause i'm sick of you hurting me

i ain't gonna cry no more

'cause you don't deserve me

i ain't gonna cry no more

pack your stuff up and leave

i ain't gonna cry no more

cause i'm tired of you, me and she



[VERSE 2]

and now i can't believe all the things you did

all your secret trips, just to see your kids

what about the crib that i've never been?

is that the one that she lives in?

but soon you'll see

that the man he's not

the "un-love" affair will soon be forgot

and you will miss me, but i won't miss you

you can pull the key, cause now we're through



[HOOK 2]



never told me the whole truth

never wishing that i knew the real you...

you didn't have to do what you did to me

never hurt so much i see

plans we made for you and me

they can't be

these are the last tears that you see from me



[CHORUS]



[BRIDGE:]

used to think that you and me were in love for sure

but i was wrong ,cuase you led me on

but now i found i don't need you around

you gotta bounce

i'm tired



[CHORUS]



ain't gonna cry

i ain't gonna cry

it's not the fact that it's your baby

but it's the fact that you lied

and you hurt me

pack your stuff and leave



i'm sick of you

i'm through with you

i'm done with you

i'm tired of you

i'm tired of your lies

i ain't gonna cry no more
