Laurie Levine, Josie Field - Not Gonna Cry Lyrics

Though the water's not flowing
And the seeds they are not growing
My chimney it's not smoking
And the wires they are broken

I won't cry (No, no, no, no, no)
No, I'm not gonna cry

Though the words are all spoken
And there's nothing left
But this hole in my bucket
And this ache in my chest

I won't cry (No, no, no, no, no)
No, I'm not gonna cry

I'm waiting for the rain
I'm waiting for the sun
I'm waiting for the end of this night to come
I'm waiting at your doorstep
Looking up at the sky
I'm waiting for heavens to open up and cry

Though the wheels have stopped turning
And the fires are not burning
My kettle is not whistling
And nobody is listening

I won't cry (No, no, no, no, no)
No, I'm not gonna cry (No, I'm not gonna cry)

I'm waiting for the rain
I'm waiting for the sun
I'm waiting for the end of this night to come
I'm waiting at your doorstep
Looking up at the sky
I'm waiting for heavens to open up and cry

Though the muses have stopped talking
And even my cat is yawning
And the drugs are calling
Time has slowed down to crawling

I won't cry (No, no, no, no, no)
No, I'm not gonna cry (No, I'm not gonna cry)

I'm waiting for the rain
I'm waiting for the sun
I'm waiting for the end of this night to come
I'm waiting at your doorstep
Looking up at the sky
I'm waiting for heavens to open up and cry
