I stand along the shadows and here's the reason why
You say that you are leaving and I'm so afraid I'll cry
I can't hold these tears inside no matter how I try
So don't look back at me and see me crying
No-o-o don't look back at me and see me crying
You have my heart so please don't take my pride
No-o-o don't look back at me and see me crying
Cause teardrops are the one thing I can't hide
I stand and watch you leave me and I'll keep my hurt inside
You'll never know my sorrow and you'll never know I cried
I'm a broken hearted fool there's no denying
So don't look back at me and see me crying
