Lyrics
It is time for you to stop all of your sobbing
Encouraging the person to cease crying and being sorrowful
Yes it's time for you to stop all of your sobbing oh oh
Reiterating the need to stop sobbing
There's one thing you gotta do
Indicating there's a specific action required
To make me still want you
Stating that stopping sobbing is necessary for maintaining interest or affection
Gotta stop sobbing now
Reinforcing the directive to stop sobbing
