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 led
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 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 faulter
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
For the life that you led
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 want to be
So no tears
No tears
'Cause someone
somewhere's going
home tonight
Trying to understand
the sacrifice
So save your tears
for those left behind
For the life that you led
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 want to be
So no tears
No tears
No tears for me
