Let Her Talk

She comes home, pours some wine
Kicks her shoes off, sits down next to me
It's been a helluva day, she says to me
Here I go again, thinking how can I step in
Save the day, solve the problem
But us guys, sometimes we gotta

Let her talk, let her cry
Let her get it off her mind
Be a rock, be a shoulder
Don't say a word, just hold her
Don't forget to be a friend
Give her space but know just when
To pull her in a little closer
Yeah, you gotta know that you can't fix it all
But you can let her talk

I got it wrong so many times
Thinking I always had to have all the answers
Like I had to be some kind of expert
But most times, all it takes
Is for me to just sit and wait
Don't make a joke, don't try to kiss her
Don't cut her off, yeah, just listen

Let her talk, let her cry
Let her get it off her mind
Be a rock, be a shoulder
Don't say a word, just hold her
Don't forget to be a friend
Give her space but know just when
To pull her in a little closer
Yeah, you gotta know that you can't fix it all
But you can let her talk

And it seems so simple now
But it took me so long to figure it out

Let her talk, let her cry
Let her get it off her mind
Be a rock, be a shoulder
Don't say a word, just hold her
Don't forget to be a friend
Give her space but know just when
To pull her in a little closer
Yeah, you gotta know that you can't fix it all
But you can let her talk

Oh, you can let her talk
