Lyrics
Cry, Baby, Cry
Let it all wash out,
The future looks quite dim to you
Of that there is no doubt
I Tried, Baby, Tried
To make it all work out
But I just couldn't do it..
So I will hold you
While you Cry, Baby, Cry
Often it?s the little things that set two souls apart
And still they cling to anything to protect a weary heart
And if I had let you see that my fear disguised the truth
What would you think of me?
Would you look up to me?
Cry, Baby, Cry
Let it all wash out,
The future looks quite dim to you
Of that there is no doubt
I Tried, Baby, Tried
To make it all work out
But I just couldn't do it.
So I will hold you
While you Cry, Baby, Cry
Helpless child in the middle ground of silent misery and pain
Too young for all the answers as to why things have to change
But if I stayed right where I am, I'd be a shadow of myself
What would I teach you to be?
Would you repeat history?
Cry Baby Cry...
Things are gonna get better
Without pain we can't know joy
Day by day it gets better
Have patience with yourself
Cry, Baby, Cry
Cry, Baby, Cry
Cry, Baby, Cry
Cry, Baby, Cry
Let it all wash out,
The future looks quite dim to you
Of that there is no doubt
I Tried, Baby, Tried
To make it all work out
And I just couldn't do it.
But I can hold you
While you Cry,
