Lyrics

Don?t Come Cryin? (to me)

(verse 1)
Back in high school we were best of friends.
You dated Troy, and I dated Tim.
But even then, it just wasn?t enough.
You always needed more than one man to love.
Well, I didn?t notice, or I chose not to see,
How you stole my love right from under me.

(chorus)
So, don?t come cryin? to me, when you want sympathy,
for takin? more than you need. You should have known better.
Well, don?t come cryin? to me.

(verse 2)
Some years later I was invited to stand.
In your wedding, right next to the best man.
Well, I had to hold back the tears in my eyes,
As you kissed the love of my life.
Maybe the worst part was knowing that you,
Would take his heart and you would tear it in two, and when you do . .

(chorus)
Don?t come cryin? to me, when you want sympathy,
for takin? more than you need. You should have known better.
Don?t come cryin? to me, cause you knew you were wrong,
Bein? where you don?t belong, now you?re sayin? you?re sorry.
Well, don?t come cryin? to me.

(verse 3)
All in time the truth was revealed.
You took his money, and ran off with your next thrill.
Now you?re back, with empty hands, all alone.
But, in your absence he got up and moved on.
He signed the papers and left you behind.
Then came to me, now we?re in love and doin? fine.

(chorus)
So don?t come cryin?. No, don?t come cryin? to me, when you want sympathy,
for takin? more than you need. You should have known better.
Don?t come cryin? to me, cause you knew you were wrong,
Bein? where you don?t belong, now you?re sayin? you?re sorry.

Don?t come cryin? to me,
Cause I found happiness, now you look like a mess, what goes around comes around.
Cause you reap what you sew, you?re only mad cause he knows, you?re really not sorry.

No, don?t come cryin? to me, when you want sympathy,
for takin? more than you need. You should have known better.
Don?t come cryin? to me, cause you knew you were wrong,
Bein? where you don?t belong, now you?re sayin? you?re sorry.
Well, don?t come cryin?. Don?t come cryin?. Don?t come cryin? to me.
