You Don’t Have to Cry
[Verse 1]
Impetuous girl, what you don’t know can’t hurt you
Wish they wouldn’t come back around here no more
But you say “I’ll get you yet”
They are crass, all the people in towns, are falling out and falling down and falling
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Wish I would’ve come back here less as a boy dressed up as a girl dressed all in colors
And how you will sing to them, and how your pain will fall
And how you will sing to them, singing it
“La la la la la la la la la la”
[Chorus]
You don’t have to cry anymore
You don’t have to cry anymore
[Verse 3]
All the prettiest worlds, don’t cover them all up in your mind
As you paint, as it should’ve been, you were meant to love
You could not live without it
And in your heart and in your lines
And you’ve worked so hard and you’ve lived so kind, been out there just falling down
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Wish they wouldn’t come back for my boy dressed as a girl dressed all in colors
And how you will sing to them and how your verses fall
And how there’s a Roman candle burning just for you
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
You don’t have to cry anymore
You don’t have to cry anymore
You don’t have to cry anymore
You don’t have to cry anymore
