i would say i'm sorry
if i thought that it would change your mind
but i know that this time
i have said too much, been too unkind

i try to laugh about it
cover it all up with lies
i try to laugh about it
hiding the tears in my eyes

'cause boys don't cry
boys don't cry

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

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

'cause boys don't cry
boys don't cry
