Marlon Jackson - She Never Cried Lyrics

(Fred Maher/Marlon Jackson)

I remember when I was young
You used to hold me in your arms
You always told me whatever I do
Have love for your father he's a part of you
Even though he left us alone
How can your heart speak so strong

You deserve much more
You're not the lady next door
Why does she have so much pride
She never cried
What can I do
He walked out on you
Everyday I cry
I feel the pain you hide
The voice of light
Will shine some night
And that's the day
That hurt will go away

To raise a kid, while still in school
L'll always respect you
You worked two jobs it carried us through
L'm sorry for the pain he caused you

What he expected you
To do with your life
You were young
Running out on you
With his child
That was wrong
How can he live
Not knowing we're alive
Where is my father
In this world I cried
You deserve much more
You're not the lady next door
Why does she have so much pride
She never cried
What can I do
He walked out on you
Everyday I cry
I feel the pain you hide
The voice of light
Will shine some night
And that's the day
That hurt will go away I saw my father walking
Down the street
I stopped and stared
Mom turned her head I said

You left us all alone
You never did come home
Stop don't turn away
I've been waiting for this day
To tell you how feel
Everyday regret that I
Was born into this world
Because of me her heart is lonely
She sat all alone
Hoping that you would phone
Never once she put you down
Responsibility you should have faced
Instead you ran away
Leaving us astray
Not once did you try
You're less than a man inside

You deserve much more
You're not the lady next door
Why does she have so much pride
She never cried
What can I do
We walked out on you
Everyday I cry
I feel the pain you hide
The voice of light
Will shine some night
And that's the day
That hurt will go away
