Laurie Levine - Not Gonna Cry [Original] Lyrics

Though the water is 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, 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, 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, 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

Now the muses have stopped talking
That's me sinking down
And time has slowed down to crawling

Oh, I'm not gonna
And I don't wanna
No, I'm not gonna, 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
