Let Her Cry - Hootie & The Blowfish

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 never lets me in

only tells 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 then 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 standing by the phone

saying baby, maybe I’ll be back some day

I wanted to look for you

You walked in I didn’t know just what I should do

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

Saying…

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

Ahhhh, oooohhhh, ahhhhhh, oooohhooo, la la la la

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, ahhhh

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

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.

And…

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 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.

ohhh…let her be
