When I was a little boy
Took a fall bruised my hands and knees
It was okay mama was always there to
wipe away my tears tenderly
Now I'm a grown man
These tears I must hold back and hide
Before they trickle down my face
'Cause I'm too big to cry


I guess I never realized
How lonesome it would be
I never thought the day would come
When you would tire of loving me
Your voice was never sweeter
Than the day you said good-bye
You'll never know how much it hurts
'Cause I'm too big to cry




Every time I close my eyes
I see your loving face
In my mind I go back in time
And I feel your warm embrace
I give up on forgeting you
No matter how hard I try
You'll never know how much my heart remembers
'Cause I'm too big to cry
I'm too big to cry
No matter how much my heart remembers
I'm too big to cry




It seems strange to be alone
I never dreamed we'd be so far apart
The tears that fall you'll never see
for they are falling inside my heart
I'll say hello and wish you well
Any time we pass each other by
You'll never know how much it hurts
'Cause I'm too big to cry


If I knew then what I know now
You'd still be kissing me
Instead there is someone else's lips
Where my lips ought to be




Every time I close my eyes
I see your loving face
In my mind I go back in time
And I feel your warm embrace
I give up on forgeting you
No matter how hard I try
You'll never know how much my heart remembers
'Cause I'm too big to cry
I'm too big to cry
No matter how much my heart remembers
I'm too big to cry
