Hootie & The Blowfish - Let Her Cry Lyrics

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 standin' 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 had a, had a beer and felt sorry for myself
Singing

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

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

Last night I tried to leave
She 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?"

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, ho let her be
