Thought I'd cry for you forever but I couldn't, so I didn't
People's children die and they don't even cry forever
Thought I'd see your face in my mind for all time
But I don't even remember what your ears looked like
And the clock still strike midnight and noon
And the sun still rises and so does the moon
Birds still migrate south and people move on
Even though I'm no longer in your arms
Thought the mountains would crumble and the rivers would bend
But, but I thought all wrong, world did not end
The maps will just have to stay the same for a while
Didn't even need therapy to rehabilitate my smile
Thought I'd cry for you forever but I couldn't, so I didn't
People's children die and they don't even cry forever
Thought I'd see your face in my mind for all time
But I don't even remember what your ears looked like
And the clock still strike midnight and noon
And the sun still rises and so does the moon
Birds still migrate south and people move on
Even though I'm no longer in your arms
Thought the mountains would crumble and the rivers would bend
But, I thought all wrong, baby, I thought all wrong and the world did not end
The maps will just have to stay the same for a while
Didn't even need therapy to rehabilitate my smile, rehabilitate my smile
Thought I'd cry for you forever but I couldn't, so I didn't
Thought I'd cry for you forever but I couldn't, so I didn't
Thought I'd cry for you forever but I couldn't, so I didn't
Baby, I Thought I'd cry for you forever but I didn't
