"Woman Don't Cry" lyrics

So you're feelin' lonely
Like love has gone away at night
You're broken-hearted 'cause your man ain't never done you right
You feel discouraged, feel like love ain't nothing but a lie
Your broken heart it's taking all the teardrops from your eyes
I'm telling you

No, woman, don't cry
Promise I will be by your side
I want you to know that love is alive (Yes it is)
And love don't want no woman to cry

I can hear you thunder
I can feel the pain in your eyes
I can smell the flowers that he never gave on Valentine's

Don't be discouraged 'cause he wasn't right
I know your heart is broken
But I promise you that you are the survivor
I'm telling you

No, woman, don't cry
Promise I will be by your side
I want you to know that love is alive, baby
And love don't want no woman to cry

You gave him your love
You gave him your soul
You gave him your money
You gave him a home
Well all he ever gave you
Was a broken heart
Well girl I'm right here standing with open arms

No, woman, don't cry
Promise I will be by your side
I want you to know that love is alive
And love don't want no woman to cry

No, woman, don't cry
Promise I will be by your side
I want you to know that love is alive
And love don't want no woman to cry

Oh... no

No, woman, don't cry
Promise I will be by your side
I want you to know that love is alive
And love don't want no woman to cry
