Just Let Me Cry
Ashlee Simpson · Other Songs - Ashlee Simpson
I, I don't know why
Why you need some reason to feel lost inside
You, you know that I'm alright
You know that I'm just the kind of girl that feels so hurt and smiles
I don't do excuses
I don't ask why
It's just a breakdown
It happens all the time
So get outa my face
Don't even try
Ya wanna help me, just let me cry
Yeah I loved you all my life
but you don't even know a thing I feel inside
No, by the look in my eye
That I'm just fine but I might need you to hold me tight
I don't do excuses
I don't ask why
It's just a breakdown
It happens all the time
So get outa my face
Don't even try
Ya wanna help me, just let me cry
I don't do excuses
I don't ask why
It's just a breakdown
It happens all the time
So get outa my face
Don't even try
Ya wanna help me, just let me cry
I had a bad day, I'll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry
I had a bad day, I'll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry
I had a bad day, I 'll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry
I had a bad day, I'll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry
Just let me.... cry
I'm breaking down just let me cry
I don't do excuses
I don't ask why
It's just a breakdown
It happens all the time
So get outa my face
Don't even try
Ya wanna help me, just let me cry
I don't do excuses
I don't ask why
It's just a breakdown
It happens all the time
So get outa my face
Don't even try
Ya wanna help me, just let me cry
