You Don't Have to Cry - Emma Ruth Rundle

Impetuous girl, what you don’t know can’t hurt you

Wish they wouldn’t come back around here no more

But you say «I'll get you yet»

They are crass, all the people in towns,

Are falling out and falling down and falling

Wish I would’ve come back here less

As a boy dressed up as girl dressed all in colors

And how you will sing to them, and how your pain will fall

And how you will sing to them,

Singing it: «La la la la la la la la la lah «You don’t have to cry anymore

You don’t have to cry anymore

All the prettiest worlds, don’t cover them all up in your mind

As you paint, as it should’ve been, you were meant to love

You could not live without it

And in your heart and in your lines

And you’ve worked so hard and you’ve lived so kind,

Been out there just falling down

Wish they wouldn’t come back

For my boy dressed as a girl dressed all in colors

And how you will sing to them and how your verses fall

And how there’s a Roman candle burning just for you

You don’t have to cry anymore

You don’t have to cry anymore

You don’t have to cry anymore

You don’t have to cry anymore
