Don't Cry Tonight

He left you all alone
with your heart broken.
Lots of tears have flown
and words were spoken.

He left you in the worst condition.
He was able to let you go.
Even though it was a hard decision,
this might be all you need to know.

Don’t cry yourself to sleep.
His choice wasn’t right
and the wound is deep.
But please, don’t cry tonight.

When he walked away
your feelings weren’t gone.
Can you look me in the eye and say
you’ve got the strength to carry on?

You deserve so much better.
Someone who’s always there.
I’m writing you this letter
to let you know I still care.

Don’t cry yourself to sleep.
His choice wasn’t right
and the wound is deep.
But please, don’t cry tonight.

Don’t cry tonight.
Don’t give up the fight.
You didn’t do anything wrong.
You were always so strong.
Don’t give up, I’m here for you
and lots of others too.
You can’t afford to sleep any less.
Dream on little princess.

Don’t cry yourself to sleep.
His choice wasn’t right
and the wound is deep.
But please, don’t cry tonight.
