I could be sittin' on the M train goin' back to Brooklyn
I could be crossin' a street somewhere and not lookin'
I could be drunk at a party, laughin' out loud
I could be anywhere
I could be right here, right now

I could be walkin' through a grocery store at 3 AM
I could be almost fallin' in love again
You're still on the street, every sidewalk I go down
I swear you're everywhere, I swear you're right here right now

I don't wanna be cryin' in public
But here I am cryin' in public
I am strong and it's stronger than I am right now
Tryna keep it in but it's comin' out
I don't wanna be cryin' in public
But here I am cryin' in public

First thing in the morning, last thing at night
Is it gonna pass, will it last for a lifetime?
'Cause I could be watchin' a movie, up late on my friend's couch
God, I could be anywhere
I could be right here, right now

I don't wanna be cryin' in public
But here I am cryin' in public
I am strong and it's stronger than I am right now
Tryna keep it in but it's comin' out
I don't wanna be cryin' in public
But here I am cryin' in public
Even on the days where I think it'll miss me
Like it or not, it's still gonna hit me
Oh, even on the days where I pray it'll miss me
Like it or not, it'll never be easy

Oh, I don't wanna be cryin' in public
Oh, here I am cryin' in public
I am strong and it's stronger than I am right now
Tryna keep it in but it's comin' out
I don't wanna be cryin' in public
But here I am
Here I am
I don't wanna be cryin' in public
