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
ass a long time ago
Well I'm not gon cry
I'm not gon cry
I'm not gon shed 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 shed 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
at the drop of a dime
Swallowed my fears
stood by your side
I shoulda left your
ass a thousand times
Well I'm not gon cry
I'm not gon cry
I'm not gon shed 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 shed 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
at the drop of a dime
Swallowed my fears
stood by your side
I shoulda left your
ass a thousand times
Well I'm not gon cry
I'm not gon cry
I'm not gon shed 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 shed 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 shed no tears
No, I'm not gon cry
it's not the time
cuz you're not worth my tears
