Don't cry, Joe
Let her go, let her go, let her go
Don't cry, Joe
Let her go, let her go, let her go

You got to realise this is the wind-up
You're gonna feel much better once you make your mind up
Don't cry, Joe
Let her go, let her go, let her go

So you lost your gal, it's happened many times before
So you sit and mope like a dope, what's that good for
Get a hold of yourself, forget her, you lived long before you met her
There're lots of other girls, so I say
Don't cry, Joe
Let her go, let her go, let her go
Don't cry Joe
Let her go, let her go, let her go

You got to realise this is the wind-up
You'll feel much better once you make your mind up
Don't cry, Joe
Let her go, let her go, let her go

Take a look around and see just what you're missing
You'd soon forget your troubles if you'd only listen
So don't cry, Joe
Let her go, let her go, Joe, let her go

Just turn your big brown eyes in her direction
You'll find the one that loves you has a real affection for you
Don't cry, Joe
Let her go, let her go, let her go

Listen to me, Joe
Let her go
