Don't Cry Ilene

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, yeah

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, oh no

Oh, there was a rainbow over here

He didn't see it from over there

'Cause black and white are fine

But I think he's color blind

Watching over me

There must have been some kind of mystery

Because I wanted him too

But it was 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, no

I don't know exactly why he left you

Maybe a change for good

Don't cry Ilene, oh no

Don't cry
