CRY NOT FOR ME
(John Elliott / Don Hecht)

as recorded by Patsy Cline
1958


Cry not for me my love
When I am far away,
There's nothing more to say,
Cry not for me!

Cry not for me my love,
You've found another thrill,
And though I love you still,
Cry not for me!

Love is a golden rose
That grows within your heart,
Unless the petals fade
And fall apart!

Cry not for me sweetheart,
But if a tear should start,
Cry not my broken heart,
Cry not for me!

There is a golden rose
That grows within your heart,
Unless the petals fade
And fall apart!

Cry not for me sweetheart,
But if a tear should start,
Cry not my broken heart,
Cry not for me!
(cry not for me)
