How Long Can You Cry?
How Long Can You Cry?
By Pat Nason (c) 2009

Verse One
How long can you cry?
Until the crying doesn't make you feel
Much better anymore
If you could live another year
For every tear you'd ever cried
Would it take a million years
To make you truly satisfied?
How long can you cry?

Verse Two
And how long can you sing?
Until the singing makes you feel like
You can handle anything
Let the music take you somewhere
Let it carry you away
Just forget about tomorrow
It won't matter anyway
How long can you sing?
Bridge
And how long can you live?
When in the end, there's only just so much
That anyone can give
How long can you live?

Verse Three
And how long can you stay?
Until the staying makes you crazy
And you have to go away
There's so many things that you could do
As long as you are here
Won't you keep me company
Until it's time to disappear?
How long can you stay?
And how long can you sing?
And how long can you cry?
