hiding the tears in my eyes 'cause boys don't cry

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 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

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

misjudged your limits
pushed you too far
took you for granted
i thought that you needed me more

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