Candi Staton - Stand By Your Man

Too Hurt to Cry

I see your clothes all packed baby
And she's waiting for you on the outside
For as long as we've been together baby
How can you tell me this is goodbye?
'Cos I'm not breaking down
Oh it's not because of my pride
The reason you don't see no tear baby
I guess I'm just too hurt to cry

Baby!
I'm too hurt to cry
I'm too hurt to cry
Ain't no tears in my eyes
I'm just too hurt to cry

I neglected myself baby
Devoted my life to you
Listen
To ensure your happiness baby
There was nothing I wouldn't do
No, no, no
But I guess you found what you wanted
I feel so bad I could just die
The reason you don't see no tear baby

I guess I'm just too hurt to cry

Baby!
I'm too hurt to cry
I'm too hurt to cry
Ain't no tears in my eyes
I'm just too hurt to cry
I can't stand for you to leave me
I can't stand for you to say goodbye
I'm just going to walk away baby
I'll turn my back
I want you to walk on out the door
I don't want to see you leave me
I just can't stand to see you leave me baby
I'm just too hurt, I'm too hurt, I'm too hurt
I'm just too hurt to cry
Ohhh I don't you to leave me
Too hurt to see me cry baby
