Let Her Cry - Hootie & The Blowfish

She sits alone by a lampost 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 said 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 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, sayin' 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 Ahh... 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 mama, 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.

How can I love someone I never touched? You lived under the water, but I love you so much You never been on land, and you never seen the sky You don't know what a cloud is Why does everything I love have to die? They all wanted to see you be as big as you could be But I couldn't let that be By keeping you small, meant keeping you safe If I could do it again, I'd release you to sea 'Cause I can't bear to see Something so wild just die in a tank And Pablow the blowfish I miss you so much And Pablow the blowfish I miss you so bad On Saturday night, we all went out to eat But I can never decide, so someone chose sushi I got soup, and I ordered rice But watching my friends eat my friends, ruined my appetite Oh, Pablow the blowfish If they only knew you like I do They'd love you too And Pablow the blowfish I miss you so bad I won't forget, even one second we had 'Cause you might be gone, but you could never be dead I heard of a seahorse named Sadie I heard she was quite the lady Maybe you'll find her and you could make babies That'd be kind of crazy If Pablow the blowfish Found love deep in the sea Then that would mean Pablow the blowfish Is better off than here with me But Pablow the blowfish I miss you so bad

Staring back at you Did you see my lips Or were you smiling right in front of me Your father called my name Then he smiled with great relief 'Cause it wasn't me that you were clinging to He made you turn around You do that thing you do And then you laughed with me I don't know (I don't know) What I can't see (I can't see) I don't know but I'm makin' time to call I don't know (I don't know) What I can't see (I can't see) I don't know but she's watching me... leave Just wish they'd turn around Just wish they'd try to see But they don't understand and that's alright with me I'm leaving now Going down to Tucker's Town Where I can lie for free Nobody stares at me And I'd love to hurt the population She called last night I said "I'm about to leave" Then I heard him scream... "I'll pack your bags" 'cause I don't know (I don't know) What I can't see (I can't see) I don't know but I'm makin' time to call I don't know (I don't know) What I can't see (I can't see) I don't know but I'm leaving here To see the world through your Rosy glasses I'll teach you to fly but they teach greed We live the belt but I can bleed I don't know, what I can't see I don't know, what I can't see I don't know (I don't know) What I can't see (I can't see) I don't know... I don't know... What I can't see I don't know, I, I, I, oh What I can't see, what I can't see I said I don't know, I... What I can't see I don't know I, I, I, I, I...
