Lyrics
DON'T COME CRYIN'
VERSE
You said you wanna say goodbye
Now you tell me why
You think that there's a better life
The one you've never tried
Friends tell me what to do
But they don't live with you
I know you best
PRE-CHORUS
And I know that one day at sunrise it'll dawn
It'll dawn on you (it'll hit you like a cold morning wind, baby)
Then it's gonna be, just too late
To feel, to feel the way we used to
CHORUS
DON'T COME, DON'T COME CRYIN'
Don't you come cryin' to me
Don't you know
There won't be nothing left once I'm free
VERSE
Why'd you let me step inside
Your arms so open wide
If you wouldn't let me stay
For my whole life
I'm right here in your hands now
Oh, but I'm slipping through
I'm not like the rest, I won't be waiting
(Repeat Pre-Chorus and Chorus)
