Lyrics

Everybody cries sometimes

When they’ve just bumped their heads

Or they’re all alone in bed

Everybody cries sometimes

I know the feeling, yes I do

‘Cause sometimes, I cry, too

 

You may have thought it was silly to cry

A thing that grown-ups never do

You may have thought that only babies cry

Well, it just isn’t true, you know that

 

Everybody cries sometimes

When the one they wish would stay

Has to go away

Everybody cries sometimes

I know the feeling, yes I do

‘Cause sometimes, I cry, too
