Ain't Gonna Cry No More

(Coverdale/Moody)

Rising with the morning sun
I turn to greet the dawn,
Knowing I must face another day....
Sleepless night behind me,
Just a memory of pain,
My heart has always been a cross to bear....
Lord, I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away....
I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today....
All around me, shadows fall,
Tho'day has just begun,
I realise I'm on my own again....
Memories of broken dreams,
As distant as the sun,
Are drifting like an acho in the wind....
Lord, I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away....
I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today....
Babe, I thought about it,
But, it just ain't done no good,
You hold my heart and soul within your hand....
All the time, you're in my mind,
I never thought you could be so blind,
Maybe someday I will understand....
Lord, I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away....
I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today....
Hey, mama you drive me crasy,
Knowing you're my hearts desire,
Why'd you go and hand me up this way....
You've given melove, given me love,
Now tell me what you were thinking of,
Why'd you go and steal my soul away....
Lord, I know the sunshine,
But, I feel the tears of rain
Falling down to wash my sins away....
I'll try hard to remember
So I won't be fooled again,
Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today....
Hey, I ain't gonna cry no more today....
