Verse 1    You have a way about you, it penetrates my heart
                 Every time I let you in, you manage to tear it all apart
                 I can't let you do it, I can't let you do it this time
                
Verse 2  The last time you packed your bags, you never said good-bye
               Love wasn't on your mind, you had your sites on my pride
                I don't think you're funny, when your messin' with my mind
Chorus   So, don't make me laugh, don't make me smile
    Don't make me happy, cause I know that after a while
I'll be cryin', ya I'll be cryin' once more
Don't bring me flowers, don't care how I feel today
Don't love me all night, cause I know you're gonna steal away
And I'll be cryin', ya I'll be cryin' once more
Verse 3   My lips are dry, but I survived the drought
                You kept my head  tired, I never quite figured you out
                You aren't gonna take me, on another joy ride

Verse 4   A river of salty tears, have run down my face
              An ocean of bitter sweet memories,  now left in their wake
              I don't find it humorous, you or your patronizing ways
Chorus   So, don't make me laugh, don't make me smile
                Don't make me happy, cause I know that after a while
                I'll be cryin', ya I'll be cryin' once more
                Don't bring me flowers, don't care how I feel today
               Don't love me all night, cause I know that you're gonna steal away
                And I'll be cryin', ya I'll be cryin' once more

Bridge   Whenever I think you're gone for good, you show up at my door
               I used to eat your sugar up, but I ain't hungry...anymore

Chorus   So, don't make me laugh, don't make me smile
                Don't make me happy, cause I know that after a while
                I'll be cryin', ya I'll be cryin' once more
                Don't bring me flowers, don't care how I feel today
               Don't love me all night, cause I know that you're gonna steal away
                And I'll be cryin', ya I'll be cryin' once more

Tag         You have a way about you, it penetrates my heart...
Why Don't Ya See... (If She'll Take You Back)

Verse 1   I've tried to keep you interested, but I've lost my motivation
                Spent so long tryin' not to lose you, I've lost my inspiration
                Do this one too many times, and you just go through the motions
                It's been a real long time, since I've felt true devotion, So...

Chorus    Why don't ya see if she'll take you back
                Shouldn't take long to leave if I help ya pack
                You say you've seen the errors of your ways
                And I'm sure that might be true, one of these days
                You might wanna leave before I lose my tact
                So, why don't ya see...if she'll take you back...

Verse 2 
I have tried a number of things to satisfy your needs
                Truth be known, I'd have to say, you never satisfied me
                While she saw you come & go, I begged you not to leave
                So this time, before you step out, think about one thing

Bridge  
I've given you my best years, you managed to mow the yard
     I've tried to win your love, but it shouldn't be this hard
