"Help Me Cry" lyrics

"Help Me Cry"

Baby, she said, it's your birthday
What would you like me to do
Lie down, she said
Honey, I'm here for you
He furrowed his brow for a moment
Shifted his weight on the bed
He looked at the floor
And these are the words he said

Baby, I don't know why
I want you to help me cry
Let the walls come down
Let the warm rain fall
Baby, just help me cry
That's all

Maybe you think I'm a tough guy
But, honey, this ain't no joke
She sat and she stared
And fanned herself as he spoke
Baby, I'm weak with illusion
Misery frosting my soul
My brain won't stop
And I'm longing to lose control

Baby, I don't know why
I want you to help me cry
Let the walls come down
Let the warm rain fall
Baby just help me cry
That's all

And she said
Let's leave the crying for later, baby
She lay back and blew him a kiss
Said baby, look at this

Baby, I don't know why
I want you to help me cry
Let the walls come down
Let the warm rain fall
Baby, just help me cry

Yeah, he gave her that same reply
And asked her to help him cry
So she said alright
And she packed her clothes
Maybe she helped him cry
Who knows
Who knows
Who knows
