She sits alone by a lamppost Trying to find a thought that's escaped her
mind. She says dad's the one I love the most But Stipe's not far behind.
She never lets me in Only tells me where she's been When she's had too
much to drink I say that I don't care I just run my hands through her
dark hair Then I pray to God you gotta Help me fly away And just let her
cry If the tears fall down like rain Let her sing If it eases all her
pain Let her go Let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up
tomorrow Let her be Let her be This morning I woke up alone Found a note
standing by the phone Saying baby, maybe I'll be back someday I wanted
to look for you You walked in I didn't know just what I should do So I
sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for myself Saying let her
cry If the tears fall down like rain Let her sing If it eases all her
pain Let her go Let her walk right out on me And if the sun comes up
tomorrow Let her be Let her be Let her cry If the tears fall down like
rain Let her sing If it eases all her pain Let her go Let her walk right
out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be Oh... Last night I
tried to leave Cried so much I could not believe She was the same girl I
fell in love with long ago She went in the back to get high I sat down
on my couch and cried yellin' Oh momma, please help me Won't you hold my
hand and... Let her cry If the tears fall down like rain Let her sing If
it eases all her pain Let her go Let her walk right out on me And if the
sun comes up tomorrow Let her be Let her cry If the tears fall down like
rain Let her sing If it eases all her pain Let her go Let her walk right
out on me And if the sun comes up tomorrow Let her be Oh, let her be.
