Sheena Easton Please Don't Sympathise song lyrics

Everybody tells me, I should try to forget you

They tell me why, but don't tell me how

I know they mean well, but it does not help me

I'll work it out by myself somehow

Got to be on my own, it's just something that I must face alone

Chorus:

Please don't sympathise, it really doesn't help

Don't give me your advice, just keep it to yourself

I appreciate your taking time to call

But please don't sympathise, it doesn't help at all

Friends come to see me, but I just can't face them

I feel such a fool, when they see me cry

Since you walked out, I've been so downhearted

It's hard to take, but I know I must try, so

chorus

(Instrumental break)

Got to be on my own, it's just something that I must face alone

chorus repeats out
