| 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 lead
|
| You 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 wanna 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 winters night
|
| I loved a woman
|
| But she didn't hear my prayers
|
| So lord, oh lord, I'm yours
|
| No tears
|
| For the life that you lead
|
| You had angels in your head
|
| Did you hear them singing in the air?
|
| All the things that do seem
|
| All the things that could have been
|
| Well I've been everything I wanna be
|
| So no tears, no tears for me
|
| Because someone somewhere's going home tonight
|
| Try to understand the sacrifice
|
| So save your tears for those left behind
|
| For the life that you lead
|
| You had angels in your head
|
| Did you hear them singing in the air?
|
| All the things that do seem
|
| All the things that could have been
|
| Well I've been everything I wanna be
|
| So no tears, no tears for me |
