A Man Ain't Supposed to Cry Lyrics


Now she is gone, my heart is yearning,
Her love is cold but mine keeps burning,
How my eyes could weep but I've gotta keep them dry,
'Cause a man ain't supposed to cry.The days are long, the night are madness,
Where there was joy, now there is sadness,
Torment and despair, they refused to pass me by,
And a man ain't supposed to cry.Caught in a romance that never could be,
Lost in a hopeless affair,
Slave to her kiss will I ever be free?
I'd run away but where?Each yesterday comes back to haunt me,
The love I'd lost will ever taunt me,
Woman's right to tears will be her's until she'll die,
But a man ain't supposed to cry.Slave to her kiss will I ever be free,
I'd run away but where?Each yesterday comes back to haunt me,
The love I'd lost will ever taunt me,
Woman's right to tears will be her's until she'll die,
But a man ain't supposed to cry,
But a man ain't supposed to cry!

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
