(Vs.1)
|
|
While all the time that I was loving you
|
|
You were busy loving yourself
|
|
I would stop breathing if you told me to
|
|
Now you're busy loving someone else
|
|
Eleven years out of my life
|
|
Besides the kids I have nothing to show
|
|
Wasted my years a fool of a wife
|
|
I shoulda have left your ass a long time ago
|
|
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
Well I'm not gon cry,
|
|
I'm not gon cry,
|
|
I'm not gon shed no tears
|
|
No, I'm not gon cry,
|
|
it's not the time
|
|
cuz you're not worth my tears
|
|
Well I'm not gon cry,
|
|
I'm not gon cry,
|
|
I'm not gon shed no tears
|
|
No, I'm not gon cry,
|
|
it's not the time,
|
|
cuz you're not worth my tears
|
|
|
|
(Vs.2)
|
|
I was your lover and your secretary
|
|
Working every day of the week
|
|
Was at the job when no one else was there
|
|
Helping you get on your feet
|
|
Eleven years of sacrifice
|
|
And you can leave at the drop of a dime
|
|
Swallowed my fears, stood by your side
|
|
I shoulda left your ass a thousand times
|
|
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
I know there are no guarantees
|
|
In love you take your chances
|
|
But somehow it seems unfair to me
|
|
Look at the circumstances
|
|
Through sickness and health 'till death do us part
|
|
Those were the words that we said from our hearts
|
|
So now when you say that you're leaving me
|
|
I don't get that part
|
|
|
|
(Repeat Vs.2)
|
|
|
|
(Chorus)
|
