No baby, no baby, yeah

 

You never knew how much you hurt me, baby

You never cared how much I cried

Baby, I gave my heart to you, you just walked away

Now you've come back and now you wanna stay

 

But you're never gonna make me cry again, again

And you're never gonna break my heart again

Like you did, then

No, you're never gonna make me cry

No, you're never gonna break my heart again

 

What made you think that I'd forgive you, baby?

What made you think that I'd forget?

Thought you could walk back in my world

But I've closed the door

I can't let you in, baby, anymore

 

And you're never gonna make me cry again, again

And you're never gonna break my heart again

Like you did, yeah, then

No, you're never gonna make me cry

No, you're never gonna break my heart again, oh

 

You've had your last one more chance

There's no more for you, baby

So don't knock on my door

You're not welcome no more

 

And you're never gonna make me cry again, ho no

Oh, you're never gonna break my heart again

Like you did, baby, no, no, no, no

 

Never gonna make me cry, make me cry again

And you're never gonna break my heart again

Just like you did, baby, then, yeah

No, you're never gonna make me cry

You're never gonna break my heart again

 

Never gonna break my heart

Never gonna break my heart

Oo, my heart

 

I've closed the door

You're not welcome anymore, baby

Oh baby, oh baby

 

Never gonna break my heart

Never gonna break my heart

Oo, my heart

 

I've closed the door

You're not welcome anymore, baby.
