Dont Cry Lyrics

Clap hands daddy comes
With a pocketful of plums
Don't Cry
Most days I'm OK
Come steal my heart

How I wish everything was simple
How I wish everything didn't end in lies
How I wish I could just keep turning back time
How I wish I could be more like me
When I didn't have to worry about myself
How I wish I could just keep turning back time

Forgive me if I cannot try any harder
You make it seem like everything I do means nothing at all
As complications go this can't get any sweeter
Don't Cry

Clap hands, daddy comes
With a pocketful of plums
Don't Cry
Flashback, twisted up
I'm so close to giving up
Don't Cry

Right now I am complicated
Right now I am giving this heart away
How I wish I could just keep turning back time
Right now I'm the walking wounded
Mind set on getting out alive
How I wish I could just keep turning back time

Forgive me if I cannot try any harder
You make it seem like everything I do means nothing at all
As complications go this can't get any sweeter
Don't Cry

Clap hands, daddy comes
With a pocketful of plums
Don't Cry
Flashback, twisted up
I'm so close to giving up
Don't Cry

I should just let go
I should just let go

Forgive me if I cannot try any harder
You make it seem like everything I do means nothing at all
As complications go this can't get any sweeter
Don't Cry

Clap hands, daddy comes
With a pocketful of plums
Don't Cry
Flashback, twisted up
I'm so close to giving up
Don't Cry

Beautiful song. It is about how when you were little you didn't have to worry about the things you do when you get older. It was in an interview.

I've lived in this song for quite awhile. && Yes the going back to when life was simple makes perfect sense.

lovely.

Cover art for Dont Cry lyrics by Olivia Broadfield

I think its about the worries about being an adult...bad relationships,life full of mess,things to take care of,etc.im more inclined to interpret it in terms of failed relationships. and i really love this part : How i wish everything was simple how i wish everything didn't end in lies how i wish i could just keep turning back time

she misses the old times,where there wasnt any mess in her life
