Verse 1
I should be glad it’s all over
She wasn’t worth it all
You learn to know your friends and foes
When times are getting rough
Bridge 1
But how should I see clearly
With this water in my eyes
Chorus
If a good man had to cry, would you wipe the tears from his eyes
If a tough guy shed a tear, would you call him to be near?
Or would you walk away like Maria did today?
Verse 2
I know I’m sounding miserable
I don’t mind right now
There’ll surely be better days
The ups after the downs
Bridge 2
Rest assured, I’ll stop to wine
But let me ask you one more time
Chorus
If a good man had to cry, would you wipe the tears from his eyes
If a tough guy shed a tear, would you all him to be near?
Or would you walk away like Maria did today?
Break
She left me with a smile on her face
At least that’s what I suppose
You know I only saw her back
That’s the way it goes
