Strong Enough To Cry

You don't have to hold it all inside you

Or try to keep your feelings hid

You don't need to bottle your emotions

Of the way your daddy did

I can see inside you're hurtin'

Even though your eyes are dry

If you let a tear roll down your cheek

Honey, that don't mean you're weak

You're just strong enough to cry

They're not just little drops of water

That show the way you feel

They turn coal into diamonds

And iron into steel

I know you think that you'll be weaker

If a tear falls from your eye

Oh, but you don't understand

A woman needs a man

Who's is strong enough to cry

Every rock that we can lean on

It's not just shaped out of stone

It didn't get that way by settin'

Their dry as a bone

It took a million years of changin'

As the rain fell on it from the sky

You want to be that rock for me

Honey, I need you to be strong enough to cry

They're not just little drops of water

That show the way you feel

They turn coal into diamonds

And iron into steel

I know you think that you'll be weaker

If a tear falls from your eye

Oh, but you don't understand

A woman needs a man

Who's is strong enough to cry

Honey, you don't understand

A woman needs a man

That's strong enough to cry
