Lyrics
0:18While all the time that I was loving you
0:21You were busy loving yourself
0:26I would stop breathing if you told me to
0:30Now you're busy loving someone else
0:33Eleven years out of my life
0:38Besides the kids I have nothing to show
0:42Wasted my years a fool of a wife
0:46I shoulda have left your a** a long time ago
0:51Well I'm not gon cry,
0:54I'm not gon cry,
0:56I'm not gon she'd no tears
0:59No, I'm not gon cry,
1:03It's not the time
1:04Cuz you're not worth my tears
1:09Well I'm not gon cry,
1:11I'm not gon cry,
1:13I'm not gon she'd no tears
1:17No, I'm not gon cry,
1:20It's not the time,
1:22Cuz you're not worth my tears
1:27I was your lover and your secretary
1:31Working every day of the week
1:36Was at the job when no one else was there
1:39Helping you get on your feet
1:43Eleven years of sacrifice
1:48And you can leave me at the drop of a dime
1:52Swallowed my fears, stood by your side
1:56I shoulda left your a** a thousand times
2:01Well I'm not gon cry,
2:04I'm not gon cry,
2:05I'm not gon she'd no tears
2:09No, I'm not gon cry,
2:12It's not the time
2:14Cuz you're not worth my tears
2:18Well I'm not gon cry,
2:21I'm not gon cry,
2:23I'm not gon she'd no tears
2:27No, I'm not gon cry,
2:30It's not the time,
2:31Cuz you're not worth my tears
2:35I know there are no guarantees
2:40In love you take your chances
2:45But somehow it seems unfair to me
2:50Look at the circumstances
2:54Through sickness and health 'till death do us part
2:59Those were the words that we said from our hearts
3:03So now when you say that you're leaving me
3:06I don't get that part
3:12I was your lover and your secretary
3:16Working every day of the week
3:21Was at the job when no one else was there
3:24Helping you get on your feet
3:28Eleven years of sacrifice
3:32And you can leave me at the drop of a dime
3:37Swallowed my fears, stood by your side
3:41I shoulda left your a** a thousand times
3:46Well I'm not gon cry,
3:48I'm not gon cry,
3:50I'm not gon she'd no tears
3:54No, I'm not gon cry,
3:57It's not the time
3:59Cuz you're not worth my tears
4:03Well I'm not gon cry,
4:05I'm not gon cry,
4:08I'm not gon she'd no tears
4:12No, I'm not gon cry,
4:14It's not the time,
4:16Cuz you're not worth my tears
While all the time that I was loving you You were busy loving yourself I would stop breathing if you told me to Now you're busy loving someone else Eleven years out of my life Besides the kids I have nothing to show Wasted my years a fool of a wife I shoulda have left your a** a long time ago Well I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon she'd no tears No, I'm not gon cry, It's not the time Cuz you're not worth my tears Well I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon she'd no tears No, I'm not gon cry, It's not the time, Cuz you're not worth my tears I was your lover and your secretary Working every day of the week Was at the job when no one else was there Helping you get on your feet Eleven years of sacrifice And you can leave me at the drop of a dime Swallowed my fears, stood by your side I shoulda left your a** a thousand times Well I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon she'd no tears No, I'm not gon cry, It's not the time Cuz you're not worth my tears Well I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon she'd no tears No, I'm not gon cry, It's not the time, Cuz you're not worth my tears I know there are no guarantees In love you take your chances But somehow it seems unfair to me Look at the circumstances Through sickness and health 'till death do us part Those were the words that we said from our hearts So now when you say that you're leaving me I don't get that part I was your lover and your secretary Working every day of the week Was at the job when no one else was there Helping you get on your feet Eleven years of sacrifice And you can leave me at the drop of a dime Swallowed my fears, stood by your side I shoulda left your a** a thousand times Well I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon she'd no tears No, I'm not gon cry, It's not the time Cuz you're not worth my tears Well I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon she'd no tears No, I'm not gon cry, It's not the time, Cuz you're not worth my tears
