Analysis of Don’t weep for me now
Frank Anthony Cimino Jr 1963 (cleveland, Ohio)
Don’t weep for me now
Did you call just to see how I am
Don’t weep for me now
Did you come see me on a whim
Don’t weep for me now
Did you spend a minute of time to make me smile
Don’t weep for me now
Did you go that extra mile
Don’t weep for me now
Did you make an effort to show me you cared
Don’t weep for me now
Did you even know how much I was scared
Don’t weep for me now
Did you stand by me when I was sad
Don’t weep for me now
Did you know as my life draws a end I was mad
Don’t weep for me now
Did you help me fight a unwinnable fight
Don’t weep for me now
Did you take it for granted I’d always be there
Don’t weep for me now
Did you even know I was scared
Don’t weep for me now
Did you have fun at my expense
Did you hold my hand when my time has come
Did you ever think I really wished you there
Don’t weep for me now
Just to show me you cared
