Let Her Cry

She sits alone by a lampost
 ♪
 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 she's been
 When she's had too much to drink
 
 I said 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 standin' by the phone
 Saying "Baby, maybe I'll be back someday"
 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, 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
 ♪
 Ah, oh, oh, let her, let her
 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
 Ahh

 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, yellin'
 "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
 Oh, let her be
