Lyrics
[verse]
You ask me why the mascara's running down tonight
I tell you it's just the weather, tell you it's alright
But we both know the weather's never been the reason why
There's a storm inside I'm hiding every time I cry
[chorus]
It's only crying, only crying, nothing that you need to know
It's only crying, only crying, watch me let it go
Don't ask me what's beneath it, don't ask me to explain
It's only crying, just another kind of rain
[verse]
You reach to hold me closer, I pull a little back
Some things are easier carried on a private track
I'll smile again tomorrow, promise you I will
But tonight just let the quiet sit here still
[chorus]
It's only crying, only crying, nothing that you need to know
It's only crying, only crying, watch me let it go
Don't ask me what's beneath it, don't ask me to explain
It's only crying, just another kind of rain
[bridge]
Maybe one day I'll tell you every reason why
Maybe one day I won't turn away and hide my eyes
But for now just stay here, don't say a single word
Let the rain fall quiet till the morning's heard
[chorus]
It's only crying, only crying, nothing that you need to know
It's only crying, only crying, watch me let it go
Don't ask me what's beneath it, don't ask me to explain
It's only crying, just another kind of rain
