lyrics

Have we been waiting for
A knight in shining armor
To ride in on his horse
And save us from the rainstorm

And so the days go by
And something goes awry
Just when we clean it up
Another mess is sure to come
To rob us of a perfect love

I know I know we’re lost
I know I know we tried
I know the road back is far beyond our sight
So baby it’s okay to cry

Please remind me what I’m doing here
Will you promise now to catch my tear
I know we’ll find a way
To live an honest day
There’s no choice but to cry tonight

I know I know we’re dyin
I know I know we’re tryin
I know the past keeps blocking the light
So baby it’s okay to cry

I know I know we’re lost
I’ve seen how much it’s cost
No matter what comes, here’s my shoulder tonight
Baby it’s okay to cry
Baby it’s okay to cry
