Song Lyrics

I don't think I want this anymore
As she drops the ring to the floor
She says to herself "you've left before
This time you will stay gone, that's for sure"
And he shattered something else
She dragged her suitcase down the path
To the driveway she had never gone that far
Normally this would be the time
That she would let him talk her out of leaving
But this time without crying
As she got into her car, she said

No happily never after, that just ain't for me
Because finally
I know I deserve better after all
I'll never let another teardrop fall

As she drove away, she starts to smile
Realize she hadn't for a while
No destination she drove for miles
Wondering why she stayed in such denial
Laughing about the way he shattered something else
She dragged her suitcase down the path
To the driveway she had never gone that far
Normally this would be the time
That she would let him talk her out of leaving
But this time without crying
As she got into her car, she said

No happily never after, that just ain't for me
Because finally
I know I deserve better after all
I'll never let another teardrop fall

I'm done, I'm done
Said I'm so done
I'm so done
I'm so done

I'm free, I'm free
Said I'm so free
I'm so free
I'm so free

She inhaled a breath, she'd never breathe before
Didn't want no drama no more, and she said

No happily never after, that just ain't for me
Because finally
I know I deserve better after all
I'll never let another teardrop fall ooh, no ooh

No happily never after, that just ain't for me
Because finally
I know I deserve better after all
I'll never let another teardrop fall ooh, no ooh

Another teardrop fall
I never let no, I never let no, I never let another teardrop
