Don't I know it? Nobody has to say I've been lucky. Guess I was born that way. I thank my father, his absence has made me strong. And I love my mother but she had troubles with God.
No tears for the life that you've led You've had angels in your head Did you hear them singing in the end All the things that you've seen All the things that could have been Well I've been everything I want to be So, no tears, no tears for me
Yeah, I've bathed in sunshine But cherished the fading light And I heard my heartbeat falter on a winter's night I loved a woman but she didn't hear my prayers So Lord, oh Lord, I'm yours No tears
Cause someone somewhere's going home tonight Trying to understand the sacrifice So save your tears for those left behind
