It's Alright To Cry


You fall in the playground
And hurt your knee
It aches and it burns
And you count to three
You can't keep the tears back
You don't have to try
It's alright to cry

It's time to go home
And you're all perspired
You're cranky, you're hot
And you're really tired
Well if you feel like sobbing
And you don't know why
It's alright to cry

Crying's not just for babies
Grownups can do it too
Big kids cry when there's a reason why
If they can do it, so can you

When you're feeling sad
It's the thing to do
If your stomach aches
Or your heart aches too
If you're scared or you're hungry or not very dry
It's alright to cry
Cry, cry, cry
It's alright to cry
It's alright to cry
It's alright to cry
