Lyrics and translation

Original

I would say I'm sorry

If I thought that it would change your mind

But I know that this time

I have said too much, been too unkind

I try to laugh about it, cover it all up with lies

I try to laugh about it, hiding the tears in my eyes

'Cause boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

I would break down at your feet

And beg forgiveness, plead with you

But I know that it's too late

And now there's nothing I can do

So, I try to laugh about it, cover it all up with lies

I try to laugh about it, hiding the tears in my eyes

'Cause boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

I would tell you that I loved you

If I thought that you would stay

But I know that it's no use

That you've already gone away

Misjudged your limit

Pushed you too far

Took you for granted

Thought that you needed me more, more, more

Now, I would do most anything to get you back by my side

But I just keep on laughing, hiding the tears in my eyes

'Cause boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

English translation

I try to laugh about it, hiding the tears in my eyes

'Cause boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

I would break down at your feet

And beg forgiveness, plead with you

But I know that it's too late

And now there's nothing I can do

So, I try to laugh about it, cover it all up with lies

I try to laugh about it, hiding the tears in my eyes

'Cause boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

Now, I would do most anything to get you back by my side

But I just keep on laughing, hiding the tears in my eyes

'Cause boys don't cry

Boys don't cry

Boys don't cry
