I'll be yours tonight,
But don't hold me too tight...
When we say goodbye
Remember, boys don't cry.
I wanna love you in the worst way baby
You gotta kiss me just to taste a little danger
Can you take it?
I might break it...
Getcha getcha get you on your bad behavior
Take it or leave it
You're the one that needs it
Wanna feel that rush
But it hurts too much
When your heart gets crushed...
I'll be yours tonight,
But don't hold me too tight...
When we say goodbye
Remember, boys don't cry.
[x2]
I wanna kiss you where it hurts pretty baby
One little touch I'm gonna bring you to your knees yeah
I'm gonna tease ya
Through your jeans yeah
But when it's over better catch amnesia
Be my dirty little secret
When I'm tearing off your t-shirt
Wanna feel that rush
But it hurts too much
When your heart gets crushed
I'll be yours tonight,
But don't hold me too tight...
When we say goodbye
Remember, boys don't cry.
[x2]
(Did I say too much? What is too much?
Don't fucking tell me when I've had too much.
Just one more Johnny... please?
Who me? Never officer!
I'm over the limit? What is the limit really?)
I'll be yours tonight,
But don't hold me too tight...
When we say goodbye
Remember, boys don't cry.
[x2]
Remember, boys don't cry...
Remember, boys don't cry!
But don't hold me too tight...
When we say goodbye
Remember, boys don't cry.

"That was one of the earlier songs I wrote... What inspired me to write Outta Time and Boys Don't Cry was to have that nostalgic 60's, almost Ronettes influence..."
The songs is really about her past relationships and breaking boys hearts. The album Trouble is even dedicated to "all the boys who tried to save me."
