I always thought I was the strong one |
|
Who had the faith when you had doubt |
|
I was the one to hide my feelings |
|
You were the one to let them out |
|
My daddy taught me, "Son, be tough and strong" |
|
That is what I tried to do |
|
But you're telling me, girl, that you can't live like this |
|
And that you might be leaving soon |
|
Do real men cry? |
|
I never thought that it was true |
|
Maybe I could tough this one out |
|
Be strong enough to make it through |
|
But now there's tears in the eyes of this stubborn fool |
|
Do real men cry? |
|
Baby, now you know that real men do |
|
I assumed you knew that I would love you and be your rock through thick and thin |
|
I've always been a man of few words when what you needed was a friend |
|
I thought if I stood tall just like a wall, it would all be good enough |
|
Please let me hold you now and promise you, girl, that I'm through with acting tough |
