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
