Waste No Tear's On Me



Why did you wait
till I have gone?
To tell me that you care.
You place flowers on my grave.
But I'll not know they're there.
For I have
climbed heavens stairway,
And walked thru the Golden Gates.
So all the tears you're crying now,
Are coming much too late.
Now unkind words
no longer hurt,
So your tears are shed in vain.
Never once did you cry for me,
Tho you brought me so much pain.
Save your tears
for those you love,
For tomorrow they may die.
Leaving you to live in misery,
Then you'll have the right to cry.
Tho you beg and
ask forgiveness,
It's too late now can't you see.
Save your tears for someone else,
And waste no more on me.
