Sometimes things can get crazy But that's no reason to go run and hide I haven't heard from you lately The days and nights just keep passing on Well I guess that it's over But I have no fear in letting go I gotta look to the future It's time to face the music And make it on my own so [Chorus] Don't cry for me baby I'm operating on a natural high Don't you cry for me baby The past is over so kiss it goodbye Don't you stand in my shadow Cause when you do I take it personal I guess it's time to let you go Can't sit here waiting for a miracle I got to get a reaction Communication seems to be a no What happened to the attraction If I don't get an answer I think I better go so, [Chorus] Don't you cry for me Don't shed a tear for me I'm gonna be alright Don't you cry for me I'm not in misery I can't wait I'm gonna have me a good time [Chorus] So dry your eyes, no need to cry, no time for sad goodbyes It's time to go, nothing to show, so baby don't you cry
