When You Feel the Need To Cry

When you feel the need To shed a tiny tear It’s OK my friend To cry when they appear In the very end There’s nothing you should fear So go ahead and shed a tiny tear Some are tears of joy Some are tears of grief Some that we enjoy Bring us sweet relief When you share your feelings We all understand Everybody has a teary gland Little boys and girls cry Men and women too Tender hearts don’t question why They just simply do When you have to wave goodbye And your heart is true Go ahead and shed a tear or two.
