"DADDY DON'T CRY" lyrics

When I met you
I was focused
Full of love and
Pure devotion
Are you happy
That I folded
Just to lay down
In your bed of roses

I'm pouring salt inside the cut
I need to walk it off
I take my liquor with no chaser
So I can toughen up
You wanna be a man
Then be the man you're talking 'bout
And put your money where your mouth is baby

I've been hurting all day
But daddy don't cry
So I'm dancing my tears away
The light is all it takes
But if we're dancing in the dark
At least we're dancing our fears away

Now I'm going
Through the motions
I'm convinced that
Love is hopeless
If I leave now
Will you notice
If I stay here
Will you rip me open?

I'm pouring salt inside the cut
I need to walk it off
I take my liquor with no chaser
So I can toughen up
You wanna be a man
Then be the man you're talking 'bout
And put your money where your mouth is baby

I've been hurting all day
But daddy don't cry
So I'm dancing my tears away
The light is all it takes
But if we're dancing in the dark
At least we're dancing our fears away
