You look back in his eyes one final time
As you close the door
And you knew somehow a part of you died in that house
Now there's nobody here can shelter you
You close up, you hold back the tears
But you can't fight the pain now then why do you try

Go on and cry
And surrender to it, tonight
Time alone won't heal your wounds

You still see his face
It was one time a part of your life
Now it hangs like a ghost
Holding you each time you try to move on
You've tried to burn those memories
But they keep refusing to die
And you can't let them go just by saying goodbye

You've got to cry
Surrender to it, tonight
Time, alone won't heal your wounds
It just makes you numb
Cry, break your heart and do it
It's alright
Cry, like a child

Now life is too short to be bitter baby
When the pain gets too strong to deny
It stands in your way and it won't let you by

You've got to cry
Just surrender
Cry, like a child
Cry, just surrender to it tonight
Time alone won't heal your wounds
It just makes you numb
Cry, break your heart and do it
It's alright
Cry, like a child
