I cry because I love you
I cry because I care, 
I cry because I am here
And you are way out there.

I do not like the distance
It makes me feel all blue, 
I wish you were here with me
Or me out there with you.

I cry because I miss you
I cry because I can, 
For if I did not shed a tear
I would not be a man.

A man who shows emotions
For the girl that he loves, 
It's hard to control the feelings
When push comes to shove.

So when I cry for you
Please don't think me less, 
For what I cry out of love
Are emotions that I express.
