"Not Gonna Cry For You" lyrics - TONY! TONI! TONE!
[Spoken Intro: Raphael Saadiq]
Girl, I'm sick and tired of crying over you
You know sometimes
I run outta tears from my eyes...crying over you
I know you may not believe that
See, but I swear that I do
[Verse 1: Raphael Saadiq]
There's been other times you had some other guys
And all the guys before had the same things in mind
And what they had, dear love, was a temporary love
Girl, what I had for you was a thing from above
[Chorus:]
But, I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (oh no)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (oh no)
I'm not gonna cry for you
(I've been crying for much too long)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you
[Verse 2: Raphael Saadiq]
All alone on Sunday night, I try to hold it in
I called over female friend 'cause I knew she'd take me in
I find myself lying in bed with tears full of tears
So now I must go and straighten up my crib, ooh...
[Chorus:]
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (not no more)
I'm not gonna cry for you
(I won't cry, I won't cry for you, baby, no)
I'm not gonna cry for you (oh no)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (anymore, my baby)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry
[Bridge: Raphael Saadiq]
As I lie here by myself, I put my feelings on the shelf
And I don't know why I always cry for you
[Chorus:]
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (no more)
I'm not gonna cry for you
(I won't cry, I won't cry for you, baby, no)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (not no more)
I'm not gonna cry for you
(I won't cry, I won't cry for you, baby, no)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (not no more)
I'm not gonna cry for you
(I won't cry, my baby)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (not no more)
I'm not gonna cry for you
(I been, I been crying oh so long)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (anymore)
I'm not gonna cry for you
I'm not gonna cry for you (anymore, my baby)
