I Don't Want to Cry Anymore - Billie Holiday, Barney Kessel, Ben Webster

Each night, just about sunset

I watch you passing my door

It’s all I can do

Not to run to you

Cause I don’t want to cry anymore

Nighttime, when there is moonlight

The same old moon I knew before

It’s all I can do

Not to run to you

Cause I don’t want to cry anymore

All that I know about happiness

I found just being with you

Then I would find myself losing my mind

Over some careless thing you would do

Oh, why can’t I forget you

I know so well what is in store

A moment or two

Up in the clouds with you

Then back where I was before

No I don’t want to cry anymore

All that I’ve known about happiness

I found just being with you

Then I would find myself losing my mind

Over some careless thing you would do

Oh, why can’t I forget you

I know so well what is in store

A moment or two

Up in the clouds with you

Then back where I was before

No I don’t want to cry anymore
