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
