Do You Mind? Lyrics

Do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

It's been a long, long time

Yeah, do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

Just this time

I've been holding it all on my shoulders

For such a long, long, time

So, do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

Just this time

You know it's hard to feel safe sharing emotions

People don't understand

You gotta maintain a strong outer presence

It's everybody's façade

I've kept emotions in check for the most part

I try to be brave and strong for the kids

But lately, I've been stumbling somehow

I see your willing strength

Do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

It's been a long, long time

Yeah, do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

Just this time

I've been holding it all on my shoulders

For such a long, long, time

So, do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

Just this time

I know this feeling will pass maybe tomorrow

I won't be singing the blues

I'll take a deep breath and stand up really tall now

And Face the day with a groove

But just for now I can't shake this gloomy feeling

I keep wondering how

How can I make it through this tender feeling

Would you just help me somehow

Do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

It's been a long, long time

Yeah, do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

Just this time

I've been holding it all on my shoulders

For such a long, long, time

So, do you mind if I cry on your shoulder

Just this time
