What happens now, what happens next?
What kind of emotional roller-coaster can you expect?
Well that's a real good question and it's a real hard fact
What you've got to look forward to if he's not coming back

Chorus:
First you cry the whole night through
And then you sigh what did I do?
Then you pray to cut a deal to take away the hurt you feel
There's no shortcut you can take
To fix a heart once it breaks
You Learn - You Laugh - You Stand - You Fly
But first you cry!

You take each step one by one
And know you'll stand a little stronger when you're done
They don't come easy and they don't come fast
But the good will stay forever and the bad won't last

Chorus:
First you cry the whole night through
And then you sigh what did I do?
Then you pray to cut a deal to take away the hurt you feel
There's no shortcut you can take
To fix a heart once it breaks
You Learn - You Laugh - You Stand - You Fly
But first you cry!

I sound so wise, I sound so smart
I hope I remember this when someone breaks my heart

Chorus:
First you cry the whole night through
Then you sigh what did I do?
Then you pray to cut a deal to take away the hurt you feel
There's no shortcut you can take
To fix a heart once it breaks
You Learn - You Laugh - You Stand - You Fly
But first you cry!
But first you cry!
But first you cry!
