Would You Hold Me While I Cry



Time goes by but I'm not feeling better
So, I thought I would write you a letter
You can't see there's a teardrop in my eye
More will come; would you hold me while I cry?

A loneliness stays in me everyday
Day and night, it never goes away
Life has changed, there's a black cloud in my sky
I hurt bad; would you hold me while I cry?

I hide from all, the way I really feel
Time passes by, but I can't seem to heal
Someday, I know, that I'll no longer try
Tears will fall; would you hold me while I cry?
