[Verse 1]
I've had no use to wear a pair of lashes or mascara
And my eyes have natural shadows from the crying (Ooh)
That I've done so much of lately
'Cause it really hurt me greatly
When I found the love you vowed was only lying (Ooh)
[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm young, so there's still a chance
For me to find a true romance
[Chorus]
So no more tearstained make up for me
No more tearstained make up, baby, for me
I've made up my mind, I'm gonna get myself together
Made up my mind, no usе crying forever
[Verse 2]
Like a storm, my tеars have rained
Since your shirt was lipstick-stained
And the stains that it contained were not my colour (Colour)
No sponge has quite the power
To absorb the constant shower
Of the tears pancake and powder could never cover (Cover)
[Pre-Chorus]
But today, I see things a little clearer
And I say as I look into my mirror
[Chorus]
No more tearstained make up for me
No more tearstained make up, baby, for me
Yes I made up my mind, I'm gonna get myself together
Made up my mind, no use crying forever
[Final Chorus]
No more tearstained make up for me
No more tearstained make up, baby, for me
No more, no more, for me (No more tearstained make up for me)
No, no more (No more tearstained make up for me)
