But If You Do, I Have Some Tissue

Cheer up - don't cry.
I know today you're feeling blue,
And though I don't know what is so bad,
Though I don't know what's bothering you -
Cheer up and don't cry.

Maybe you made a silly mistake
That has consequences not quite as silly?
Perhaps you hurt a person's feelings -
Since I know you'd never want to really.
Just maybe it was a pretty bad test
That you might have failed or just got a D?
Perhaps today you could not breathe
And felt imprisoned and far from free.

But though I know you want to frown,
I selfishly have to implore you to resist,
Because that will get me just as depressed
And your bright, cute smile is sorely missed.

So cheer up and don't cry,
Or I think I just might die.
