Verse 1:
                    
I would say I’m sorry
                        
If I thought that it would change your mind
               
But I know that this time
      
I’ve said too much
     
Been too unkind 


Pre-chorus 1:
       
 I try to laugh about it
                   
Cover it all up with lies
       
I try to laugh about it
                     
Hiding the tears in my eyes


Chorus 1:
                          - Same as intro
´cause boys don’t cry
                   
Boys don’t cry 


Verse 2:
                  
I would break down at your feet
                  
And beg forgiveness

Plead with you

But I know that

It’s too late
                      
And now there’s nothing I can do 


Pre-chorus 2:
              
   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


Chorus 2:
                           
´cause boys don’t cry
                     
Boys don’t cry 


Verse 3:
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


Bridge:
              
Misjudged your limits
              
Pushed you too far
              
Took you for granted
                              
I thought that you needed me more


Verse 4:
Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just
Keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes


Chorus 3:
'cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
