Let Her Cry

She sits alone by a lamppost 

trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind 

She says Dad's the one I love the most 

but Stipe's not far behind 

She lets me in 

only tell me where's she's been 

when she's had too much to drink 

I say that I don't care I just run my hands 

through her dark hair and I pray to God 

you gotta help me fly away 

And just¡­ 

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. 

This morning I woke up alone 

found a note by the phone 

saying maybe I'll be back some day 

I wanted to look for you 

You walked in I didn't know just what to do 

so I sat back down had a beer and felt sorry for myself. 

-Chorus- 

-Solo- 

-Chorus- 

Last nite I tried to leave 

She cried so much I just 

could not believe 

she was the same girl I 

fell in love with long ago 

She went in the back to 

get high 

I sat down on my couch 

and cried 

yelling oh mama please 

help me 

won't you hold my hand. 

-Chorus- 

-Chorus-
