You left
You're gone
But I know, I know, I'll go on
'Cause I haven't
No no
I haven't
I haven't got time to cry
A year ago
I'd have died
I would wait, wait, wait, wait
And wonder why
Oh, but I've learnt
That I haven't
No, I ain't got no time to cry
Plenty more where you came from
There's a whole lot of fish in the sea
A brand new surprise at each turn of the road
And the road keeps winding for me
So I'll laugh
And I'm gonna date
Because I believe I believe, yeah yeah, I believe
I gotta believe in fate
That I just
I haven't
No no no
I, I haven't
No, I haven't got time to cry
Oh no no, I haven't
I say I haven't
No no no, I haven't gotten it
I just ain't got no time to cry
No no no
No no
I ain't got no time to be fishing around
And waiting for you to come back
And try this thing over one more time
No no no
No no
I ain't gonna cry
No no no
No no no
I haven't got time to cry
