Don't Cry Until It's Over
It's the same hand, why won't you hold it?
You never used to want to let it go.
It's the same face, but we're getting older,
And you're wearing that smile like I don't know.
Behind your eyes you're welling up again, your voice begins to break.
Don't cry until it's over.
No need to paint my shoulders,
With the tear drops rolling down your face.
You jump to say it won't work.
We make mistakes but we learn.
Believe me when I say it's all okay.
Don't cry until it's over.
Remember when we called it broken,
but after everything you took me by surprise.
Remember that our bed of roses,
Falls somewhere in between the red and white.
You try to fight the way you feel but then your voice begins to break.
Don't cry until it's over.
No need to paint my shoulders,
With the tear drops rolling down your face.
You jump to say it won't work.
We make mistakes but we learn.
Believe me when I say it's all okay.
When did we decide we had a problem?
Who says that this is something we can't mend?
Oh have we blown this way out of proportion?
Or are you right this time, is this the end?
My voice begins to break.
Don't cry until it's over.
No need to paint my shoulders,
With the tear drops rolling down your face.
You jump to say it won't work.
We make mistakes but we learn.
Believe me when I say it's all okay.
Don't cry until it's over.
Don't cry, don't cry.
Don't cry until it's over.
Don't cry, don't cry.
Don't cry until it's over.
You never used to want to let it go.
It's the same face, but we're getting older,
And you're wearing that smile like I don't know.
Behind your eyes you're welling up again, your voice begins to break.
Don't cry until it's over.
No need to paint my shoulders,
With the tear drops rolling down your face.

Don't cry, don't cry.
Don't cry until it's over.
Don't cry, don't cry.
Don't cry until it's over.
