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've tried to do,
But now you're telling me, girl, you can't live like this,
That you might be leaving soon.
Do real men cry?
I never thought 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?
Well, baby, now you know that real men do.
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.
Do real men cry?
I never thought 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?
Well, baby, now you know that real men do,
Do real men cry?
Well, baby, now you know that real men do.
