Lyrics
Softly
Softly
Baby don't cry, I'm loving you softly
Baby don't cry, I'm not that hard on you
Baby don't cry, your tears just might cost me
Where does it hurt?
If you say it's your life
Then I gotta ease your pressure
So that you can see just who I am
And if you say it's our love
Then I gotta make it tighter
But not so tight that you can't breathe
Don't you understand?
Baby don't cry (baby, don't you cry)
I'm loving you softly
Baby don't cry (baby, don't you cry)
I'm not that hard on you
Baby don't cry (baby, don't you cry)
Your tears just might cost me
Where does it hurt?
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-woah-oh-ooh
Ooh
If you say it's your mind
Then I got to come inside you
To help you find a way to soothe your thoughts
'Cause those tears that you shed, just don't become you
So lay down with me, in loving we'll get lost
Baby don't cry (baby, don't you cry)
I'm loving you softly
Baby don't cry (baby, don't you cry)
I'm not that hard on you
Baby don't cry (baby, don't you cry)
Your tears just might cost me
Where does it hurt?
Oh, show me baby
Oh-oh-oh
Oh, baby don't cry
Baby don't cry, no, no-no
And if you wipe away all your tears
Wash away all your fears
Don't cry no more (baby, don't you cry)
Don't you hear, oh?
Don't cry no more, baby (baby, don't you cry)
Don't you hear?
Show me where it hurts (baby, don't you cry)
Show me
I'll do everything I can, babe (baby, don't you cry)
You know me
Baby don't cry (baby, don't you cry)
Don't cry no more
Was is something that I did? (Baby, don't you cry)
