| Lyrics: | V1: Once I was a young boy waiting anxiously For daddy to come home to me And we’d play catch until the sun went down A few years later my heart skipped a beat When that blue eyed girl she fell for me And her kiss turned my whole world upside down How’d I get from then till now Chorus: Why can’t I cry when my heart is hurting Why can’t I laugh just to ease the burden Of a life where I don’t feel nothing no more Why can’t I see the beauty in the sunrise Why can’t I feel the love in her eyes When she tells me she couldn’t love me more When did the colors of my world turn black and white Why can’t I cry Verse 2: Was it the emptiness from when daddy died Then hearing stories like his on the news at night And closing my heart so it just can’t hit home Was it giving in to all demons Finding love then up and leaving Even though it meant standing all alone God help me cause I need to know Bridge: God I need an answer Come save my soul tonight I wanna feel, I wanna hurt, I wanna bleed, I wanna cry God save me |
