Helmet Let Her Cry Lyrics

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 let's 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... 

  

 chorus: 

  

 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... 

  

 (chorus) 

 (chorus) 

  

 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 

 And I sat down on my couch and cried 

 Yelling "Oh mama, please help me 

 Won't you hold my hand" 

 And... 

  

 (chorus)
