Don't Cry Ilene Lyrics - Vonda Shepard

He had his father's eyes 

And his mother's point of view 

There was no disguise 

He couldn't see through 

Sometimes the little things 

They don't seem so small 

But they had a good thing overall, yeah 

Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody 

Knew him the way you did 

It's hard to say exactly why he left you 

Maybe a change for good 

Don't cry Ilene, oh no 

Oh, there was a rainbow over here 

He didn't see it from over there 

'Cause black and white are fine 

But I think he's color blind 

Watching over me 

There must have been some kind of mystery 

Because I wanted him too 

But it was wrong, all wrong 

Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody 

Knew him the way you did 

It's hard to say exactly why he left you 

Maybe a change for good 

Don't cry Ilene 

Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody 

Knew him the way you did 

It's hard to say exactly why he left you 

Maybe a change for good 

Don't cry Ilene, no, no 

I don't know exactly why he left you 

Maybe a change for good 

Don't cry Ilene, oh no 

Don't cry
