Lyrics

I don't think I'll be a fool tonight

I'm hesitant to act foolish tonight.

Just because our love's not going right

Our relationship isn't going well.

It does no good at all to walk the floor

Pacing and waiting for you won't help.

And listen for your knock upon my door

Hoping for your return by listening for your knock.


Why cry?

Questioning the reason for crying.

Why not dry these tears and call it goodbye?

Suggesting it's better to stop crying and say goodbye.

Even though I know that I

Realizing the difficulty in accepting the end.

Can't admit we're really through

Fearing that admitting the truth will hurt deeply.

You'll just break my heart in two

Anticipating emotional devastation if love isn't genuine.

If your love is just a lie why cry?

Questioning the authenticity of the love.

I could shed a million tears

Expressing potential for shedding countless tears.

But what's the use

Feeling helpless due to tears not changing the situation.

'Cause these two eyes have took enough abuse

Endured a lot of pain and mistreatment.

And even though it cuts me to the bone

Emotionally hurt to the core.

Crying's never gonna bring you home

Understanding that crying won't bring reconciliation.


So why cry?

Reiterating the question of the purpose of crying.

Why not dry these tears and call it goodbyе?

Suggesting it's time to stop crying and accept the end.

Even though I know that I

Acknowledging the difficulty in acknowledging the truth.

Can't admit we're rеally through

Fearing the emotional impact of accepting it's over.

And you'll just break my heart in two

Anxiety about heartbreak if love was insincere.

If your love is just a lie why cry?

Questioning the genuineness of the love.


Drop by drop I've wasted time

Time wasted in emotional pain.

Heartache over you

Heartache endured due to the relationship.

I need to get control of me

Recognizing the need to regain self-control.

Find somebody new

Considering finding a new relationship.


So why cry?

Reiterating the question of the purpose of crying.

Why not dry these tears and call it goodbye?

Encouraging to stop crying and move on.

Even though I know that I

Acknowledging difficulty in accepting the end.

Can't admit we're really through

Fearing the pain of accepting it's truly over.

You'll just break my heart in two

Anticipating heartbreak if love was insincere.

Your love is just a lie why cry?

Questioning the authenticity of the love.


Your love is just a lie why cry?

Reiterating the doubt about the sincerity of love.
