You asked if I remembered when we first met
Girl, tell me how could I ever forget
There you were standing there, oh oh
With ruby lips and golden hair
Your beauty seemed to hypnotize me
I had that feeling I was no longer free
But when I asked you for a dance
You didn't even give me a chance
And it hurt me through and through
That was the first time I cried over you
You had my heart dangling
Like a puppet on a string
To you I meant nothing, no no no
But to me you meant everything
Girl, you've known since then through the years
I've shed so many tears (So many tears)
And all because of you, I couldn't cry if I wanted to
I don't know why I still love you
'Cause you don't even want me around
Year after year it's the same old thing
You build me up, to let me down
So go on and hurt me, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Like you've done so many times before
But this time is gonna be different
'Cause my tears you're gonna see no more
'Cause I've cried so through the years (Through the years)
Until I've run out of tears (Run out of tears)
And all because of you, I couldn't cry if I wanted to
So go on and hurt me (No more tears, no more tears)
Break my heart (I couldn't cry if I wanted to)
I couldn't cry, no no no no
I wanted to (I couldn't cry if I wanted to)
No no no (No more tears, no more tears)
I Couldn’t Cry If I Wanted To was written by Eddie Holland.
I Couldn’t Cry If I Wanted To was produced by Norman Whitfield.
