When the sun comes up tomorrow...

Hootie & the Blowfish - 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 never lets me in
Only tells me where 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 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

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

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... 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 momma, 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.

  2. I bet you've forgotten all about this classic. :) Not really a classic by charts, but at least I was playing this in my beat-up acoustic years back...

  3. Not exactly, I have the song in my MP3 player

  4. Sorry for being anal, but this song deserves to exist in a better form other than MP3. Convenience kills fidelity!
