He was parked outside of the bar and grill
Inside his wife was sitting there drinkin' her fill
They got three kids sitting at the house alone
While the daddy's out trying to save his house and home
Feeling abused, says he's getting used
To life dealing him a dirty hand
Maybe what he needs is not someone to preach
But someone who can understand
It's all right to cry
It's all right
It's all right to cry sometimes
When crying's all you can do
She was sitting with her friend in the waiting room
Down at the clinic where that awful work is done
Well, the boyfriend left, he had nothing to say
Now the friend is saying she sees no other way
Trying desperately to make her see
There's a way to face what's in store
But it breaks her heart - she falls apart
Watching her walk through the doctor's door
Cause life's a desperate affair
And in our haste to show we care
We forget how to be real
How to bleed and how to feel
We don't have all the answers
We just know Somebody who does!
I was having my dinner with the TV on
When up came the pictures of the starving Africans
Children dying - what a pitiful sight
And suddenly you know I lost my appetite
Tears came to my eyes, I realized
Something had touched me to my soul
But the feeling changed, it went away
I changed it by remote control
It's all right to cry
It's all right
It's all right to cry sometimes
But that ain't all you can do
