Where do you go when you're leaving
Where do you run to after we fight
Do you ever cry when your heart aches
I ain't never seen no tears in your eyes
It's just like a woman to take it on her shoulders
Protecting the emotions of a man

They say a man ain't supposed to cry
All he's gotta do is say goodbye
When the love is gone and the pain is high
A man leaves his tears for a woman to cry
I don't know why

In my sleepless nights, you're dreaming
In the light of the morning, somewhere having a laugh
You're such a master of disguises
And I'm the only one who's seen what's behind the mask
Ain't it just like a man to run from his emotions
Thinking he's faster than the pain

They say a man ain't supposed to cry
All he's gotta do is say goodbye
When the love is gone and the pain is high
A man leaves his tears for a woman to cry

Draws the water till the well runs dry
You can't put out the fire if it don't burn your eyes
Ain't it just like lovers to keep on hurting each other
Trying to hold all the tears inside, all the tears inside

But you know a man ain't supposed to cry
All he's gotta do is say goodbye
When the love is gone and the pain is high
A man leaves his tears for a woman to cry
A man leaves his tears for a woman to cry
