The Temptations — I Couldnt Cry If I Wanted To

[Intro] You ask if I remembered, when we first met Girl, tell me how could I ever forget [Verse 1] There, you were standing there Aw, with ruby lips and the golden hair Your beauty seemed to hypnotise me I had that feeling I was no longer free [Chorus] But when I ask you for a dance (For a dance) You wouldn't even give me a chance (Me a chance) And it hurt me through and through That was the first time I cried over you [Verse 2] You had my heart dangling Like a puppet on a string To you I meant nothing, darling But to me, it meant everything [Chorus] Girl, you know since then through the years (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 [Bridge] 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 [Verse 3] So go on and hurt me (Hurt me) Aw, like you did This time it'll be different Mmm, my tears you'll see no more [Chorus] 'Cause I've cried so through the years (Through the years) Until I run out of tears (Run out of tears) And all because of you I couldn't cry if I wanted to [Outro] I'll never shed another tear I couldn't cry no more, darling Seems as though the pain Have gone the tears from my eyes Never cry, never Never no more I'll never shed another tear
