Why Can't I Cry Songtext
von Charles Smith

Everybody′s talking about heartaches, pain and misery
But they wouldn't laugh if they knew what it had done to me
They just pass everything off with a tear
But I′m different
But here's a way that I wish that I could be

Listen to my song

There was a man named Adam, yeah
Who fell in love with a woman named Eve, yeah
And she caused him to eat from the forbidden tree
And his sin whipped him down to his knees, oh yeah
Now if he cried, whoa, what about me?

Listen now


Well why (why), oh why (why) can't I cry, yeah
Tell me why (why), oh why (why) can′t I cry, yeah
So many men have cried greater than you and I
Oh why, oh why can′t I cry?

Listen right here
There was Samson who loved Delilah, yeah
And she blinded him with her beauty and cut his hair, yeah
And he cried out to God to raise him from his knees
And he come back and defeat all of his enemies

Now if he cried, oh, what about me?

Well why (why), oh why (why) can't I cry?
Well why (why), tell me why (why), oh can I cry now?
Oh why, oh why can′t I cry?

Mmm, mmm
