Not For You
(Kjartan Fannberg)

When love is gone
when friendships end
when harm is done
when scars won't mend

When I'm alone
and feeling blue
yes, I can cry
but not for you

With every man
who lost his love
Who cannot see
the skies above

A hopeless mind
without a clue
with them I cry
but not for you

For hope in vain
for life so cold
for souls in pain
for dreams too bold

for every wish
that won't come true
For those I cry
but not for you

Nothing is hopeless
my future's bright
even in darkness
I see the light

My life is perfect
that much is true
and yet I cry
but not for you

For hope in vain
for life so cold
for souls in pain
for dreams too bold

for every wish
that won't come true
for those I cry
but not for you

I see your face
your loneliness
an empty place
hear you confess

I see your eyes
and know they're true
to my surprise ...
I cry.
