No man knows what it's like,
Crying a river, a river for love.
Seems like no one sees,
When a woman's fed up,
It's always too late
And she's already given up
Now what can you do?
Now that she's not there to touch,
She's not there to hold, at night.
And what would you do?
Now that she's been hurt in love,
Gon' be hard to trust.
'Cause she's given so much in love
And it seems like her best just aint enough
And it's taken more than she can give oh~
To the point where she can't take no more
and her tears turn to black.
Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
(I don't know if you hear me out there)
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears (Oh~)
Black Tears
See I've been through it,
Once or twice before
So you know that I feel ya
When a good woman's scorned
You tried everything, to make it work,
Then you realize you're standing alone.
I wanna know,
Now what can you do? (What can you do?!)
Now that she's not there to touch, (Not there to touch)
She's not there to hold, at night.
(Not there to hold you, baby)
And what would you do? (What would you do baby?)
Now that she's been hurt in love,
Gon' be hard to trust. (Hard to trust)
'Cause she's given so much in love
And it seems like her best just aint enough
And it's taken more than she can give oh~
To the point where she can't take no more
and her tears turn to black.
Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
(I don't think you feel me out there)
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
(The crying of love)
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears (Oh~)
Black Tears
Oh does it make you feel real good?
Having women cry for you? for you?
Probably feelin' like a real man,
Don't know how you can,
Sleep at night, at night.
Tell me why does a man let a good girl go?
When they do everything to keep them up
When they cookin' and cleanin'
Is there a reason, you wanna give it up?
'Cause she's given so much in love
(Given so much in love)
And it seems like her best just aint enough
And it's taken more than she can give oh~
To the point where she can't take no more
and her tears turn to black.
Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears, Black Tears
(You don't know how it feels)
Black Tears, Black Tears
(When you crying black tears)
Black Tears, Black Tears
(Those little tears that you crying now)
Black Tears, Black Tears
(Ain't got nothing on these black tears)
Black Tears, Black Tears
Black Tears
