I wrote this many moons ago after coming out of a difficult phase.
Looking back I tried to say the words I needed to hear.
Originally the song was picked on acoustic guitar and it was so difficult to play that shelved it.
I rearranged this for cubase and very recently I put my vocals on it.
The song has been with me for about nine years from this date.
Feedback would be appreciated.

And the words ~
Don't Let Them See You Cry
If you feel the same I'll come around
To catch some tv or to paint the town
And in a while you will feel better
Some people don't watch what they say
N they make a list of all your mistakes
Like they're the only things that matter
Welcome to the world of modern thought
I pay top dollar just to hear you talk
Life is love and war, come and give it a try
There will be casualties on both sides
Don't ever let them see you cry
Don't let them see you cry. Boo hoo
You know you're wanted you are the first
No less than the entire universe
There is no equal under heaven
So where's the harm if you're alright
And you still have some appetite
And for a smile you'll be forgiven, child
Hanging about like a chandelier
The light refracted in your crystal tears
There's a dark cloud gathering over your sky
I've a roof on my house if you mean to stay dry
Don't ever let them see you cry
Don't let them see you cry. Boo hoo
Welcome to the world of modern thought
I'm writing checks that I can't afford
If you need a hand I'll be glad to oblige
A stiff upper lip with a skip in my side
Don't ever let them see you cry
Don't let them see you cry. Boo hoo
