Let Her Cry

Let Her Cry - My version of Hootie & the Blowfish

I sit alone by a lamp post

Tryin' to find the thought that's escaped my mind

I say, "Dad's the one I love the most, But your not far behind"

I’ll never let you in, only tell you about where I’ve been

When I’ve had too much to drink

I say that I don't care, I just run my hands through my hair

Then I pray to God you gotta help me fly away

This morning I woke up alone, found a note standing by the phone

Sayin', "Maybe, maybe I'll be back someday"

I tried to look for you, And when you walked in, I didn't know what to do

So I sat down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself

Sayin' let her cry if the tears fall down like rain

Let her sing if it eases all her pain

Let her go, let her walk right out on me

And if the sun comes up tomorrow, let her be, let her be 

[Verse 4]

Last night I tried to leave, cried so much I could not believe 

She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago 

I went in the back to get high, Then I sat down on my couch and cried, 

"Oh, Lord, you gotta help me get out of here….

[Chorus 3]

Let her cry     if the tears fall down like rain

Let her sing    if it eases all her pain

Let her go      let her walk right out on me

And if the sun comes up tomorrow, let her be
