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
