I Cry Because I Cry

I cry for me, I cry for you, I cry because I cry I’d hoped to find a love that's true And thought that love might be you But I see a man who cannot love Because of what’s missing from above A man who’s been torn and beaten down By the past loves that’s been around I cannot fix this man I see Because he’s really just like me The loves we have loved, they did not last There just a memory in our past I want to fix this man I see But then I ask, who will fix me I cannot see what’s hidden within Hidden far beneath the skin And because it’s been there for so long I cry because of the pain it caused I want to help heal that man I see But know that it may never be Love is there it’s all around In the world we live, it can be found It is the things we say and the things we do That is what expresses the love in you So I cry for me, I cry for you, I cry because I cry
