You tell me Don't Cry, Don't Cry
yet, I must say;
"Why shouldn't I?"
what we had was nothing but a big lie.

What you gave to me wasn't true love
and what you had taken from me was my heart
all in the game of your lies.
Oh, how I tried to hold on to what we once had
of what was good as long as I could.

Yet, I came up very empty
and all I could hear is your voice over and over again
saying to me in a rush of wind-
"Don't Cry, Don't Cry.

But all I seem to feel is the hurt
because nothing we had was real,
yet I keep a smile on my face -
acting like everything was okay,
Just knowing I had been put through hell for so long.

Yet here I am on the road again to hold you're hand
and someday I will give you Love -
The same way you once have given to me,
I'll meet you at the top of the mountain running free,
And it won't be in just my dreams.

I will Love when the time is right-
and I will say to you as you had to me
"Don't cry, don't cry just let me be."
This is what I will say to you over and over in my dreams
Although I know it's hard for you to comprehend.

Don't cry, don't cry because back then we needed each other.
Don't cry, don't cry this is also what you would say to me
I'll hold you but never let go of what we had.
So, please, reach out and take hold of my hand and I will hold on as tight as I can.

I will do my very best to wash away the pains
but remember I am only human, yet not new at your game
Don't Cry, Don't Cry;
you should feel all these pains and shame -
knowing you gave me all this blame.

What you don't understand
There is no more you and me.
When it all comes down to what we once were
we know it was only a big lie-
Please don't act as if you are supersized.

I just wish I would have known all of this
where I wouldn't have wasted all my time,
Oh, how you left me in an emotional mess
Don't close your eyes to what happens to us.
And no don't make a big fuss,
Because all you will tell is lies.
