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
