lyrics
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try for me girl
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try you know it’s time to go darling
Know it’s time to go
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try for me girl
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try you know it’s time to go darling
Know it’s time to go
Last night I
Saw the writing on the wall and knew
I made up my mind to give my heart to someone new
(Not to you)
This morning
In the mirror saw a different face
Boy I look too fine to waste my time waiting for you to change
So baby let’s raise a glass
Forget the past
And make it last tonight
Tonight
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try for me girl
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try you know it’s time to go darling
Know it’s time to go
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try for me girl
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try you know it’s time to go darling
Know it’s time to go
Fast driving
Got the top down and I’m feeling right
I made other plans for love
And plan to step you out my life
(Got to do it)
This morning
Woke up feeling like somebody new
Got to give myself a chance of loving with a heart that’s true
So baby let’s raise a glass
Forget the past
And make it last tonight
Tonight
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try for me girl
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try you know it’s time to go darling
Know it’s time to go
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try for me girl
Baby don’t cry for me babe
Baby don’t try you know it’s time to go darling
Know it’s time to go
Baby don’t
Don’t cry for me
Baby don’t
Don’t cry for me
(It is time to go)
Baby don’t
Don’t cry for me
Baby don’t
Don’t cry
Baby don’t
Don’t cry for me
Baby don’t
Don’t cry
Baby don’t
Don’t cry for me
Baby don’t
Don’t cry
Please
Do not cry for me
It is time to go
Time to go baby
Don’t cry for me no
Don’t cry for me
It is time to go
Time to go
Don’t cry
I’ve gotta go and make up a life for myself
Don’t cry for me
Don’t cry for me
Oh no
Don’t cry for me
Don’t cry for me
Don’t cry for me no
Don’t cry for me
