I don't always work like I think I should At the end of the day I don't always wake up with the Right words to say but If I can make you feel something I can make you feel it down to your bones When you close your eyes at night Would you let me run straight to you I want you to know Nothing's gonna take you baby Nothing's gonna take you now Nothing's gonna take you baby Nothing's gonna take you now I don't always talk like I think I could When I get that way But I know I don't wanna see you hurt See you run away so If I can make you feel something I can make you feel it down to your bones When you close your eyes at night Would you let me run straight to you I want you to see Nothing's gonna take you baby Nothing's gonna take you now Nothing's gonna take you baby Nothing's gonna take you now All this time you're on your own And I watch you going by But all this time you're still the same On corner where you live What I wouldn't try to give To say Nothing's gonna take you baby Nothing's gonna take you now Nothing's gonna take you baby Nothing's gonna take you now

Cry (if you want to) By: holly cole Cry if you want I wont tell you not to I won't try to cheer you up Ill just be here if you want me It's no use in keeping a stiff upper lip You can weep you can sleep you can loosen your grip You can frown you can drown and go down with the ship You cry if you want to Don't ever apologize venting your pain Its something to me you don't need to explain I don't need to know why I don't think it's insane You can cry if you want to The windows are closed The neighbors aren't home If it's better with me than to do it alone Ills draw all the curtains and unplug the phone You can cry if you want You can stare at the ceiling and tear at your hair Swallow your feelings and stager and swear You could show things and throw things and i wouldn't care You can cry if you want to I won't make fun of you I won't tell any one I won't analyze what you do or you should have done I won't advise you to go and have fun You can cry if you want to Well it's empty and ugly and terribly sad I can't feel what you feel but i no it feel bad I no that its real and it makes you so mad You could cry Cry if you want to i won't tell you not to I won't try and cheer you up Ill just be here if you want me; to be Near you

I didn't mean to ever be mean to you If I didn't care I wouldn't feel like I do I was all wrong but right or wrong I don't blame you Why should I take somebody like you and shame you I know that I made you cry, and I'm so sorry dear So what can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry? You made me glad, I made you sad I made you lonesome and blue And who ever knew Who'd ever think that I would be crying to you What can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry? What can I do to prove it to you, I'm sorry? I didn't mean to ever be mean to you If I didn't care I wouldn't feel like I do I was all wrong but right or wrong I don't blame you Why should I take somebody like you and shame you I know that I made you cry, and I'm so sorry dear So what can I say, dear, after I say I'm sorry?
