[Verse 1

I’ve been through storms and darker nights,

But you won’t see me break, no, not this time.

You caught my eye, not my soul,

Now it’s clear, you were never the goal.

[Pre-Chorus

I don’t fall for the fleeting pain,

Don’t cry from fear, don’t play that game.

I’m standing tall, I know what’s real,

Love’s the only thing that makes me feel.

[Chorus

I only cry for love, not the scars or the fights,

Only when it’s real, when it feels just right.

I’m not breaking for heartache or games in the dark,

Only tears for love, not a temporary spark.

[Verse 2

You thought that you had something deep,

But baby, I’ve got secrets I keep.

Maybe I’m just a little too tough,

But with you, I never felt enough.

[Pre-Chorus

I need something that breaks me down,

Not just another face in the crowd.

I don’t cry from the little cuts,

Only love can shake me up.

[Chorus

I only cry for love, not the scars or the fights,

Only when it’s real, when it feels just right.

I’m not breaking for heartache or games in the dark,

Only tears for love, not a temporary spark.

[Bridge

Hey man, I’m walking away,

It’s not hard, it’s just another day.

But if love comes knocking on my door,

I’ll open wide, I’ll ask for more.

[Chorus

I only cry for love, not the scars or the fights,

Only when it’s real, when it feels just right.

I’m not breaking for heartache or games in the dark,

Only tears for love, not a temporary spark.

[Outro

No, I won’t break for pain, I won’t break for fear,

I’ll save my tears for love, when it’s real, when it’s near.

I only cry for love.
