    Don't cry, put your head on my shoulder
    Tell me what happened, my friend
    God knows how long I've known you
    It always works out in the end

    The door is locked, the kettle's screaming
    And I can't stop this sinking feeling
    Watching you do this damage to yourself
    Knowing I can't help

    But don't cry, put your head on my shoulder
    Take all the time that you need
    God knows I'm gonna show ya
    It's never as bad as it seems

    It hurts right now but it won't forever
    We're gonna get through it together
    You're doing your best
    And what more can you do?

    You know I think that you
    Are gonna be alright, you're gonna be alright
    Gonna be alright, I feel you're gonna be just fine
    When this whole world has walked away
    Come and find me, you're gonna hear me say

    Don't cry, put your head on my shoulder
    We'll figure out what to do
    God knows, have I ever told ya?
    I'm sorry for what you've been through

    You're doing your best
    And what more can you do?
    Yeah, yeah, it's true, I said
    La-la, la-la
    La-la, la-la
    La, la-la, la-la
    La-la, la-la
