BUDDY & JULIE MILLER lyrics - Don't Cry For Me

Well, I wanted you to love me but I never thought you did, so I wanted you to hate me or something instead,

Wanted your reaction so bad it hurt, and I tried everything, but nothing would work.



Well, it's hard to show your love when you're broken inside, and I couldn't see the pain that you had to hide,

I was hard on you 'cause I misunderstood, but I know you did the best you could,

And I could hear you say...



Don't cry for me,

Don't you cry, little girl,

Don't you know I'm free?

You can save your tears for a lonely world, but don't you cry for me.



Well, I wanted you to make it, but it never worked out,

And I wanted you to know what it was all about,

I wanted you to be something that never was, but a winner looks different than you think he does, oh.



Well, I wanted you to love me like you never knew how, and I regret all the things I didn't do now,

But the past is gone and my prayers came true, but the answers look different than you think they do,

I can hear you say...



Don't cry for me,

Don't you cry, little girl,

Don't you know I'm free?

You can save your tears for a lonely world, but don't you cry for me, ooh.



Don't you cry for me,

Don't you cry, little girl,

Don't you know I'm free?

You can save your tears for a lonely world; don't you cry for me,

Don't you cry for me,

Don't you cry, little girl,

Don't you know I'm free?

You can save your tears for a lonely world, but don't you cry for me, ooh.



Oh, oh.
