Remind Me Not To Cry

The sun will never set on sadness and regret
Maybe grace will bless in her lacy dress
Explain misunderstood sad souls that never could
Find a place to rest

Help me be strong to sing you this song
Until you fall asleep

As the sun sets I won’t forget
The twinkle in your eyes
When the bough breaks and heaven shakes with a sigh
Remind me not to cry

Around the joker spins sarcastic evil grins
Can he lock me inside a cell of sin
Eight beads along a thread and everything you said
As a prayer begins

As the sun sets I won’t forget
The twinkle in your eyes
When the bough breaks and heaven shakes with a sigh
Remind me not to cry

When Starr and Maggie-Jo stood tall they didn’t know
What their words could do, how it pulled me through
Inspired another chance hold close another dance
Until our time is through
