You saw me sittin' all alone, at the bar with my hat tipped low Drinkin' a gla** of gin with no ice And even though I sipped it slow, it would burn like a volcano That's when you came sat down and said hi And you didn't even recognize who I was but I didn't mind, Cause I didn't feel like signing autographs You saw me as a normal guy and you treated me oh so nice You just wanted to know why I looked sad That's when I said [Chorus] I'm sad cause I hurt a soul tie And when she left my soul died Thought we'd be together for life (thought we'd be together for life) I lost her because of my damn pride, I'm a man that can't cry, but look at me now, With my face in the ground and a glaze in my eye. I was so tough, til she called my bluff, packed up all her stuff And left me here with a glaze in my eye. My whole life I was taught, a man don't show his heart But that's a foolish thought cause now I got a glaze in my eye. And it's harder to hide, my runny nose and my throat is dry
But I'm still tryin' not to let it show I'll just blame it on the alcohol, cause it makes me think I'm strong, But that's some bull and we both know (we both know) I can't believe I told some waitress, all of my personal business And I ain't really believe you'd understand, but you did understand You said everyone has issues, then you pa**ed me a tissue And told me that cryin' is what shows that I'm a real man [Chorus] I was so tough, til she called my bluff, packed up all her stuff And left me here with a glaze in my eye. My whole life I was taught, a man don't show his heart But that's a foolish thought, cause now I got a glaze in my eye. I was so tough, til she called my bluff, packed up all her stuff And left me here with a glaze in my eye. My whole life I was taught, a man don't show his heart But that's a foolish thought, cause now I got a glaze in my eye.
