Lonely nights I still hear the cries from Cherie Please don't hit me We were kids under the sheets In this hoarded house There's no hope in these Rooms of looped dreams All these pictures looking at me Mothers don't leave It rains, then it pours Leave your pride at the door Don't let me fall Hold me close Please don't let me go (ooh-ooh-ooh) Ooh-ooh-ooh Don't let me fall, don't let me fall The train never stopped Never had time to unpack your trauma Keep fighting the world That's how you get love, mama Your bitter tongue is sharper than a knife Cut so deep inside Don't care with a smile That I am a child It rains, then it pours There's no light through that door Don't let me fall Hold me close Please don't let me go (ooh-ooh-ooh) Ooh-ooh-ooh (ooh-ooh-ooh) Don't let me fall, don't let me fall Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Love is a sacrifice, I know that you're hurting Nothing replaces a mother's love It's irreplaceable, oh If there's no one to love, you can never lose 'Cause the only one you care about is you You can stay in the dark, but you gotta choose If you don't nurture, you're gonna lose it Without care, then you're gonna lose it With no heart, you will just abuse it If you're torn, then you gotta prove it That it rains, then it pours There's no light through that door Don't let me fall Hold me close Please don't let me go I don't wanna cry No, no Oh, please don't let me fall Ooh-ooh, I don't wanna cry (ooh-ooh) I never wanna cry, no, no I never wanna cry Don't let me fall, don't let me fall, oh Please don't let me fall
