Don't Cry Ilene - Vonda Shepard

He had his father’s eyes

And his mother’s point of view

There was no disguise

He couldn’t see through

Sometimes the little things

They don’t seem so small

But they had a good thing… overall

Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody

Knew him the way you did

It’s hard to say exactly why he left you

Maybe a change for good

Don’t cry Ilene

There was a rainbow over here

He didn’t see it from over there

Black and white are fine

But he’s color blind

Watching over me

There must have been some kind of mystery

Because I wanted him too

But it was all wrong, all wrong

Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody

Knew him the way you did

It’s hard to say exactly why he left you

Maybe a change for good

Don’t cry Ilene

Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody

Knew him the way you did

It’s hard to say exactly why he left you

Maybe a change for good

Don’t cry Ilene, no don’t cry

It’s hard to say exactly why he left you

Maybe a change for good

Don’t cry Ilene… oh no, don’t cry
