There ain't no use in me trying to tell you how I feel
'Cause what I feel ain't what you're feeling
I don't know what we did wrong
I just know if you come home
I ain't gonna let you break my heart again

There ain't no use in me trying to find out where you've been
Where you've been ain't where I'm going
'Cause if I ask you where you've been
The hurting starts and it don't end
So I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no
I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no o

Tears don't become me
Pain ain't my friend
It seems like you enjoy my crying, baby
You always said that I was strong
But I believe that you were wrong
Lately, God knows, I have been trying

There ain't no use in you trying to kiss away the hurt, baby
'Cause it hurts where it's deep down inside of me and it's hiding
If you decide you're coming home
You walk in, it won't be like before
'Cause I ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no
Ain't gonna let you break my heart again, no no
