You left me standing here in the cold...
Feeling strung out - feeling old.
And still I try, I try to pretend,
Someday this broken heart of mine will mend.
Don't tell me you cry for me,
Don't tell me you'd die for me,
Don't tell me you care for me,
Don't say a little prayer for me,
Don't tell me that love will last,
'cause I've been there and I ain't going back.
When everything's said and done,
You'll still be the only one.
Somebody gotta give, somebody gotta take,
Somebody don't bend, somebody gonna break.
Sometimes it's hard, it's hard to understand,
Why some things never work out the way they're planned.
Don't tell me you cry for me,
Don't tell me you'd die for me,
Don't tell me you care for me,
Don't say a little prayer for me,
Don't tell me that love will last,
'cause I've been there and I ain't going back.
When everything's said and done,
You'll still be the only one.
There I was flying high,
Was gonna keep on soaring to the end of the sky.
Didn't need a reason, didn't care why,
Still it all comes back to you.
Don't tell me you cry for me,
Don't tell me you'd die for me,
Don't tell me you care for me,
Don't say a little prayer for me,
Don't tell me that love will last,
'cause I've been there and I ain't going back.
When everything's said and done,
You'll still be the only one.
