"Only A Man"

To Geon Bush, Tina Jones, Clara Donath, rest in peace

Bruce Wall - 1981 (first song I ever wrote)

Ya say that you heard me,

Singin' softly far away,

The tears were flowin' free,

But only a Man,

Never Cries,,,

As far as I could see,

love could never be,

at least for you and me,

But only a Man,

Never Cries,,,

Emotions are free to show,

But only if no one knows,

But a true man never cries,

No a true man never should he ever cry,

Rivers are free to flow,

As will the four winds blow,

But only a man never cries,

No a true man never should he ever cry,

 

A good friend died yesterday,

I found no words to say,

I dropped to my knees and prayed,

But only a man never cries,

The field in which I lay,

beneath the stars of May,

Feel all my dreams fade away,

But only a man never cries,

 

Emotions are free to show,

But only if no one knows,

But a true man never cries,

No a true man never should he ever cry,

Rivers are free to flow,

As will the four winds blow,

But only a man never cries,

No a true man never should he ever cry,
