lyrics

I try so hard to tell you
You can’t just understand
The whole world kneels
And eats out of your baby hands

All time greatest hero
You’re everybody’s friend
So how come that
You feel you’ve reached a sticky end?

It’s hard to be cool
When you’re feeling such a fool
Whatever you do
Don’t lock yourself away and hide ‘cause

Nikky don’t cry
It’s going to be alright
The stars in the sky
Are going to shine so bright

The universe still loves you
Whatever you believe
I find it hard to recognise the look I see

Anything that’s happened
Whatever you have done
You’re back among your friends
Somewhere that you belong

It’s easily done
It was always going to come
You’re bound to get burned
When you mess around with grown-up kids so

Nikky don’t cry
It’s going to be alright
You know I don’t mind
We’ll sit and drink all night

And if you do there’s an arm to hold you
And if you do there’s a shoulder you can cry on
There’s a hand to reach for
If you need

Nikky don’t cry
Nikky don’t cry

Nikky don’t cry
It’s going to be alright

Nikky don’t cry
It’s going to be alright

Nikky don’t cry
It’s going to be alright

Nikky don’t cry
It’s going to be alright
We’ll sit and drink all night
I’ll stay until daylight

It’s going to be alright, alright, alright, alright

Nikky don’t cry
It’s going to be alright
Don’t want to say goodnight
Don’t want to say goodnight
Don’t want to say goodnight
It’s going to be alright
Nikky don’t cry
