Let Me Wipe Those Tears Away

Your loss is great and I’m right there
I can see the grief in your stare
I’m here for you through it all
I’ll catch you when you have to fall

Your pain is showing from your weepy eye
I’ll put my arms around you when you cry
Hold them back for another day
Let me wipe those tears away

I’ll stop my world to be in yours 
Even though when it rains it always pours
I’ll be your guide when you can’t see straight
I’ll come whenever you call any time or date

Your pain is showing from your weepy eye
I’ll put my arms around you when you cry
Hold them back for another day
Let me wipe those tears away

There will never be an end to your sorrow
But the sun will rise and set for you tomorrow 
Maybe soon your sadness will cease and you will be ok
Know my place is here and this is where I’ll stay

Your pain is showing from your weepy eye
I’ll put my arms around you when you cry
Hold them back for another day
Let me wipe those tears away

I’m by your side no matter what the stakes
To help mend your broken heart as long as it takes
I will not let you face this all alone
Let me be your friend until you’re strong enough to be on your own

Your pain is showing from your weepy eye
I’ll put my arms around you when you cry
Hold them back for another day
Let me wipe those tears away
