Don't Cry For Me

(album: Horizon - 1990)

In the slums of dark El Paso
There she lived like a back street girl
Queen of the wildside, Mexican hero

On a raid with her guy called Diego
She was caught, he could fly away
And now Maria, weeps like a willow

But every night, beneath her window, you can hear Diego sing

Don't cry for me, my Maria
'Cause it will mend with time
This lonely heart of mine
I'll be waiting for you, my Maria
Forever and a day
So wipe your tears away

A stricken look on those needy faces
When the news spread from town to town
Thousands were crying, cry for a hero

The moments of burning passion
She remembers the nights of love
And now Maria, weeps like a willow

But every night, beneath her window, you can hear Diego sing

Don't cry for me, my Maria
'Cause it will mend with time
This lonely heart of mine
I'll be waiting for you, my Maria
Forever and a day
So wipe your tears away

I'll be waiting for you, my Maria
Forever and a day
So wipe your tears away
