I Never Cry Lyrics

If there's a tear on my face
It makes me shiver to the bone
It shakes me, babe
It's just a heartache that got caught in my eye
And you know I never cry, I never cry

Sometimes I drink more than I need
Until the TV's dead and gone
I may be lonely
But I'm never alone
And the night may pass me by
But I never cry

Take away, take away my eyes
Sometimes I'd rather be blind
Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but don't you leave it alone

'Cause that's all I got to give you
Believe me, babe, it ain't been used
My heart's a virgin, it ain't never been tried
And you know I'll never cry
And you know I'll never cry
Well, you know, you know, you know, you know I never cry
I never cry

Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but don't you leave it alone
'Cause that's all I got to give you
Believe me, babe, it ain't been used
My heart's a virgin, it ain't never been tried
And you know I never cry
I never cry
