More Lyrics

I've mentioned it before and I'm sure I'll mention it many times in the future, but I'm a person who love lyrics. Guess it's my way of enjoying a form of poetry.
Since owning an iPod, I have enjoyed more music, buying a single cut from an album I would never even considered buying. Today I bought a cut from the new Lyle Lovett album "It's not Big, it's Large", an album I learned about when reviewed on CBS Sunday Morning, one of my favorite programs where I have learned about many musical artists that I had never heard off before. John Prine being a perfect example!
So today I decide to check out this Lyle Lovett album because of a cut I heard on the CBS Morning News called "Don't Cry A Tear For Me". The lyrics touched me because I know that soon someone will be walking out of my life.
Don't Cry A Tear For Me
Go if you must go
Turn if you must turn away
Don't Cry a Tear for me
Laugh if you can smile
Run if you are walking away
Don't Cry a Tear for me
Shout if you can speak
Sing if you mention my name
Don't Cry a Tear for me
Low in the Valley
Stand in the wind and the rain
High on the mountain
See the sun shining again
Shout if you can speak
Sing when you mention my name
Don't Cry a Tear for me
So go if you must go
Turn if you must turn away
Don't Cry a Tear for me
