Don't cry for me Lyrics

In the slums of dark El Paso
There she lived like a back streetgirl,
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, crying for a hero.

The moments of burning passion,
She remembers the night 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....
