Lucky Dube – Big Boys Don’t Cry

If we both believe in Reincarnation
Maybe we will have a chance in the next life, in the next life
You felt something for me
And I was so deeply in love with you
But we both said nothing
Till we ran out of time

Sometimes I cry
I said I cry
And it’s not because of the pain I feel inside
And it’s not because of the hurt I feel inside
But I cry
I said I cry
Sometimes I cry

And I remember the days
When love was so far away from me
I only knew about love
When mommy and daddy told me they loved me
I never knew that today it would be me
Having got to say I love you

But I remember that
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry

Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
And sometimes I cry
I said I cry

I remember the days
When love was so far away from me
The only time I heard about love
Was when mommy and daddy told me they loved me
And I didn’t know that today I would be standing here
Telling you how I love you

I see your beautiful face
Every time I close my eyes
You reach out for me, I reach out for you
But in real life we cannot meet, oh
That is why I cry
I said I cry

And I remember the days
When love was such a simple thing
The only time I heard about it
Was when mommy and daddy told me they loved me
And I didn’t know that today
I would be standing here
Having got to tell you I’m gonna love you, gonna love you

Big boys don’t cry
Big boys don’t cry
And sometimes I cry
I said I cry
And it’s not because of the pain I feel inside
And it’s not because of the hurt I feel inside
