Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Time's on your side
When you're six years young and brave
Heart's beating wild
Like it's strong and could never break
[PreChorus]
Then you meet your first love
Just to learn a lesson
Guess it's kind of fun in a funny way
Then it gets deeper
You say, "I'll never leave ya"
Till you get scared and you run away
Remember what I say
[Chorus]
You can cry
'Cause your tears are gonna dry
I wouldn't lie
Cross my heart and hope to die
I hope you know that I will be here
With my shoulder by your side
So cry
You can leave it all behind tonight
Cry-y-y
(You can leave it all behind)
[Verse 2]
Now you're up in the night
Thinking bout a call that you never made
You work for a life
That you don't want anyway
[PreChorus]
Then you meet a real one
Learn another lesson
Guess it's kind of fun in a funny way
Then you wanna be heard
Scream until your chest hurts
Are you gonna stay or run away?
Hear me when I say
[Chorus]
You can cry
Cause your tears are gonna dry
I wouldn't lie
Cross my heart and hope to die
I hope you know that I will be here
With my shoulder by your side
So cry
You can leave it all behind tonight
Cry-y-y
(You can leave it all behind tonight)
Cry-y-y
(You can leave it all behind)
[Bridge]
When the words in your chest hurt
You can leave it all behind
When you know it can't get any worse
Keep your shoulder close to mine
When your eyes are about to burst
Let it out you'll be alright
You can leave it all behind
Leave it all behind and
[Chorus]
Cry
Cause your tears are gonna dry
I wouldn't lie
Cross my heart and hope to die
I hope you know that I will be here
With my shoulder by your side
So cry
You can leave it all behind tonight
