Big Girls Don't Cry
Klaas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You took me out
The other night
I thought that we’d make out under the moon light
But I guess
My feeling was wrong
You said we’re breaking up
You didn’t even care
Said you’d run out of love
Like a bag of hot air
At first I didn’t know
If I should stay or I should go
At first I didn’t know
If I should stay or I should go

But big girls don’t cry
Big girls don’t cry
Big girls don’t cry
Big girls don’t cry
They wipe away their tears
Then turn and walk away
And even say goodbye
Big girls don’t cry
Don’t cry

You disappear
Alone at last
Thought I’d be down
But I got over you real fast
So I guess I’ll write you a song
About us breaking up
Like clouds in the air
How you ran out of love
Like a bag of hot air
And now it’s good to know It was right for me to go
And now it’s good to know It was right for me to go

But big girls don’t cry
Big girls don’t cry
Big girls don’t cry
Big girls don’t cry
They wipe away their tears
Then turn and walk away
And even say goodbye




Big girls don’t cry
Don’t cry

You took me out the other night
I thought that we'd make out under the moonlight
But I guess my feeling was wrong

You said we're breaking up
You didn't even care
Said you'd run outta love
Like a bag of hot air
At first I didn't know if I should stay or I should go (Stay or I should go)
At first I didn't know if I should stay or I should go

But big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry
But big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry

They wipe away their tears
Then turn and walk away
And even say goodbye
But big girls don't cry
Don't cry

You disappear alone at last
Thought I'd be down but I got over you real fast
So I guess I'll write you a song

About us breaking up like clouds in the air
How you ran outta love like a bag of hot air
And now it's good to know that it was right for me to go (Right for me to go)
And now it's good to know that it was right for me to go

But big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry
But big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry

They wipe away their tears
Then turn and walk away
And even say goodbye
But big girls don't cry
Don't cry
