I would say "I'm sorry if I thought that it would change your mind" But I know that this time, I have said too much, been too unkind 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 I would break down at your feet and beg forgiveness, plead with you But I know that it's too late now, there is nothing I can do 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 I would tell you that I loved you, if I thought that you would stay But I know that it's no use that you've already gone away Misjudged your limits Pushed you too far I took you for granted I thought that you needed me more, more, more 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
