[Verse 1] I would say I'm sorry If I thought that it would change your mind But I know that this time I've said too much, been too unkind [Chorus 1] I tried to laugh about it Cover it all up with lies I tried to laugh about it Hiding the tears in my eyes Cause boys don't cry Boys don't cry [Verse 2] I would break down at your feet And beg forgiveness, plead with you But I know that it's too late And now there's nothing I can do [Chorus 2] So I try to laugh about it Cover it all up with lies I try to laugh about it Hiding the tears in my eyes Cause boys don't cry Boys don't cry [Verse 3] I would tell you that I loved you If I thought that you would stay But I know that it's no use And you've already gone away [Bridge] Misjudged your limits Pushed you too far Took you for granted I thought that you needed me more [Outro] Now I would do 'most anything To get you back by my side But I just keep on laughing Hiding the tears in my eyes Cause boys don't cry Boys don't cry Boys don't cry
