It's Okay To Cry

JJ Heller

Compositor: Cason Cooley / David Heller / Jennifer J Heller

You're smiling, but I see it in your eyes
An ocean of emotion that you're trying hard to hide
I know that it has caught you by surprise
It's part of being human, don't you dare apologize

It's okay to cry
Please don't keep it locked inside
Take all the time you need
Don't be afraid to grieve
Just let it out, just breathe
I'm not gonna leave

This isn't where you wanted life to lead
You're askin' to go back in time, to how it used to be
Now every second feels like agony
So when it gets too heavy, go ahead, lean into me

It's okay to cry
Please don't keep it locked inside
Take all the time you need
Don't be afraid to grieve
Just let it out and breathe
I'm not gonna leave

I will be a witness to your sorrow
My friend, I'm with you
When the shadow covers you tomorrow
I'll be there too

It's okay to cry
Please don't keep it locked inside
Take all the time you need
Don't be afraid to grieve
Just let it out
'Cause I'm not gonna leave

Don't apologize
I'm so glad that I get to be the shoulder
Catching teardrops from your eyes
Just let it out and breathe
Let it out
You'll see
I'm not gonna leave
I'm not gonna leave
I'm not gonna leave
