Lyrics

[Intro: Curt Smith] Hold him, tell him that you love him Tell him he's allowed to cry, it's alright [Verse 1: Roland Orzabal, Curt Smith] Hold him, tell him that you love him It's a sad affair When there's no one there Tell him he's allowed to cry, it's alright He calls out in the night Hold him, tell him that you love him And it's so unfair At least it seems that way Tell him he's allowed to cry, it's alright When you gave him his life [Chorus: Roland Orzabal] And all this time it's been getting you down You ought to pick him up when there's no one around And convince him, oh, just talk to him Cause he knows in his heart you won't be home soon He's an only child in an only room And he's dependant on you And he's dependant on you [Verse 2: Roland Orzabal, Curt Smith] Hold him, tell him that you love him And it seems so strange That at the end of the day Tell him he's allowed to cry, it's alright Making love can be so good Hold him, tell him that you love him But the pain of birth What is it worth Tell him he's allowed to cry, it's alright When it don't turn out the way it should? [Chorus: Roland Orzabal] And all this time it's been getting you down You ought to pick him up when there's no one around And convince him, oh, just talk to him Cause he knows in his heart you won't be home soon He's an only child in an only room And he's dependant on you And he's dependant on you [Bridge: Curt Smith] Hold him, tell him that you love him Tell him he's allowed to cry [Interlude] [Outro: Roland Orzabal, Caroline Orzabal] La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la Suffer, suffer the children La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la Suffer, suffer the children La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la Suffer, suffer the children La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la Suffer, suffer the children La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la Suffer, suffer the children La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la Suffer, suffer the children La la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
