You cried tonight, it hurt me so, It hurt to watch,your tears flow. I felt your pain and frustration, As I saw you sinking, into depression. You have something, that won’t go away, No matter what, it’s here to stay. I sit and watch you, day by day, But I still don’t know, what to say. If I could take your pain away, I’d do it now, without delay. I love you so much, my dear, I wish I could chase, away your fear. I hold you close and let you cry, It’ll get better as time goes by. We’ll take it one day at a time, A cure in the future, we pray they’ll find.
