Men Don't Cry

Whoever said men don't cry
Never fell in love so hard, it hurt inside;
Never had to give them up without a fight:
Whoever said men don't cry.
And if they don't cry
What happens when he won't leave the house,
Can't sleep at night,
And can't move on no matter how hard he tries,
If men don't cry?

The gentle warmth you feel whenever you go out together.
The way she kisses you when you say you'll be her's forever.

When it's all snatched away,
You'll never be the same
And it's hard to start all over
Because with her your life was changed.
Reminising does nothing to help jumpstart your future,
But you can't stop cause everything has you thinking about her.
Everyone around you says "Just move on",
And you try,
But the more you try to find a reason,
The more you wonder "Why?"

Whoever said men don't cry
Never fell in love so hard, it hurt inside;
Never had to give them up without a fight:
Whoever said men don't cry.
And if they don't cry
What happens when he won't leave the house,
Can't sleep at night,
And can't move on no matter how hard he tries,
If men don't cry?

She was your sun and your whole world always revolved around her.
And now your heart is telling you "You can't exist without her."
You're punching walls
And throwing things to ease the pain.
Think you can't be alone
Or else you'll go insane.
You're downing drinks because it hurts all the more when you're sober,
And you'd give anything just for one more chance to hold her.
Yeah, you're a man,
But all real men have feelings, too.
Why did God have to do
Something like this to you?

Whoever said men don't cry
Never fell in love so hard, it hurt inside;
Never had to give them up without a fight:
Whoever said men don't cry.
And if they don't cry
What happens when he won't leave the house,
Can't sleep at night,
And can't move on no matter how hard he tries,
If men don't cry?

Cry-.
You've gotta let it out some how.
And the time to start's right now.

I miss you, babe,
And I hope someday
You will hear this
And once again be mine.
I gotta say
There ain't a single day
That goes by where
I can get you off my mind.
But there's a price to pay
For my foolish ways,
And I wish I realized it
In the nick of time,
Because now it's over and you had to go.
And I can't move on because there's no where to go.

Whoever said men don't cry
Never fell in love so hard, it hurt inside;
Never had to give them up without a fight:
Whoever said men don't cry.
And if they don't cry
What happens when he won't leave the house,
Can't sleep at night,
And can't move on no matter how hard he tries,
If men don't cry?
