Lost Dogs Real Men Cry lyrics

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"
And that's what I've tried to do
But now you're telling me, girl
You can't live like this
That you might be leavin' 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 that 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
