The ball will drop in New York soon
And everyone here is singing along, yeah
All the light that shine for you
You don't have to cry for me when I'm gone (Don't cry love)

I held open the door, we drove away in the storm
Never felt it before, being shook to the core
'Cause we don't sleep anymore, we don't sleep anymore
Waking up on the floor, no we don't sleep anymore
Drinking cheap Champagne, you're always going to pay
For downtown love on an uptown train
Yeah your heart's gonna break, your heart's gonna break
Till they take it away

The ball will drop in New York soon
And everyone here is singing along, yeah
All the lights, they shine for you
You don't have to cry for me when I'm gone

Don't cry for me when I'm gone
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)
Whoa, don't cry for me when I'm gone
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)

Young, dumb and afraid, in the springtime rain
Summer love when it came almost blew us away
Yeah the seasons will change, the seasons will change
Watch the colors of fall turn into inner grey
Yeah the seasons will change, so will you every day
If you wanna stay young baby don't be afraid
That your heart's gonna break, your heart's gonna break
Till they take it away

The ball will drop in New York soon
And everyone here is singing along, yeah
All the lights, they shine for you
You don't have to cry for me when I'm gone

Don't cry for me when I'm gone
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)
Whoa, don't cry for me when I'm gone
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)
Don't cry for me when I'm gone
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)
Whoa, don't cry for me when I'm gone
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)

All the lights, they shine for you
You don't have to cry for me when I'm gone
Don't cry for me when I'm gone
