So You Can Cry

[Verse 1]
Mm, so it's over
He's with someone else and you know her
And you just can't get any lower
You sit in the dark alone
And won't answer your phone
Well, I'm sorry
I won't attend your pity party
I'd rather go have calamari
And maybe a drink, and yes, I think
You should come with me
Life isn't long
There will be pain, but life goes on
With every day, a brand new song
But if you'd rather stay at home
Let me do you a favor

[Chorus]
I'll ask the sun to shine
Away from you today so you can cry
If that's what you want, alright
And I'll ask the clouds to bring
The rain for you today so you can cry
If that's what you want, alright
Mm, if that's what you want, alright
Mm (Said)

[Verse 2]
I'm a lover
And the pain of a heart from another
Can be difficult to recover
Yes, this I know
But difficult isn't impossible
And you shiver (Shiver)
He was your warmth, you cry, lips quiver (Quiver)
Well honey, go on and cry me a river
You wanna be down? (Wanna be down)
Well fine, let me help you out
How 'bout

[Chorus]
I'll ask the sun to shine
Away from you today so you can cry? (Oh no, ooh)
If that's what you want, alright
And I'll ask the clouds to bring
The rain for you today so you can cry
Oh, if that's what you want, alright
Ooh, and that's what you want, alright
Then that's what you want, alright

[Bridge]
And your tears won't bring him back
I know you wish that it did
But it just don't work like that
Ooh, I know that healing takes time
Hey, even your heart has a pace, oh
But, how much time are you gonna take?
Mm, too much would be a mistake
Woah-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]
I'll ask the sun to shine (Ooh)
Away from you today so you can cry (Cry), woah, woah, ooh
If that's what you want, alright
And I'll ask the clouds to bring (Bring the rain)
The rain for you today so you can cry (So you can cry, yeah)
If that's what you want, alright

[Outro]
I'll ask the sun to shine
Away from you today so you can cry
If that's what you want, alright
