DON’T CRY, MY LOVE

So many days are left behind,
Still holding on to love so blind.
I remember you, my sweetest dear,
With love so true, so close, so near.

My love, if only you were here,
You would have seen my falling tears.
They flowed like rivers, endless, wide,
Still running strong, though you’re not by my side.

"I love you" — a cry that echoes through,
Since the day you said adieu.
It’s no use if you return too late,
What’s gone is gone — such is fate.

(Chorus)
Don’t cry, my love, for days long past,
The blame, it bends, but holds you fast.
It’s only yours, the fault, the pain,
For love once lost won’t rise again.

Don’t cry, my love, through the night,
You should’ve loved me when time was right.
Now it’s late — my soul turns cold,
Too late to mend what once was gold.

(Verse)
Don’t cry, don’t cry, my love, no more,
Your tears now fall on a closed door.
Who bears the blame? You, not I —
You let it break, you said goodbye.

I’m sorry for the way things went,
For love misplaced, for words unspent.
But I won’t return, I can’t relive —
The pain you caused, I can’t forgive.

You suffer now, and maybe see,
What once you had in loving me.
But sorrow comes, and now you know:
It’s too late, too late to show.
