[Verse 1]
Give me your hand, boy
Rest yourself
Put your head on my shoulders
I'll be your help
I know everybody says
That we can't be scared
But you don't have to be strong right now, no
You can shed a tear

[Chorus]
So baby, cry
If you want now
You can cry
Put your pride aside
'Cause it's just you and I
Baby, it's alright
You can go and cry

[Verse 2]
And it's okay
I know it's hard
'Cause it's never easy, no
Letting down your guard
But rest assured
I'll always be here
And you don't have to worry, no
Baby, shed a tear

[Chorus]
So baby, cry
If you want now
You can cry
Put your pride aside
'Cause it's just you and I
Baby, it's alright
You can go and cry

[Bridge]
And I'll be there, baby ('Cause I'll be your friend)
Baby, it's hardly breathing (Hardly breathe)
So let me do
Do what I came for
Came for
Came for you and me
I'll be there (I'll be)
And I'll be (I'll be)
Oh, oh

[Outro]
Baby, you can cry (I cry)
Baby, you can cry (If you wanna, cry)
I said to put your pride aside, oh
Baby, it's alright
You know you can cry
You can come and cry
