Why does a man have to be so strong Lyrics

Paul Young - Why does a man have to be so strong

There you go again, saying you can't take any more;
Here I go again, wishing the ground would swallow me whole.
If I can't give you a good reason, then it's me who must be wrong,
but I'd cry if I stood for (this) treason so why does a man have to be strong?
Even though I try to get by oh why, why does a man have to be strong?
There I go again, finding the words to apologise.Paul Young - Why does a man have to be so strong - http://motolyrics.com/paul-young/why-does-a-man-have-to-be-so-strong-lyrics.html
I've got to get these tears I'm crying out of my eyes
Cause when you tell me that you need me, but you can never find me there
I bet you think I find it easy or that I don't even really care
Is it true what I hear, or just another storyline?
There's one thing I know; it won't be the only time
You'd think I was made of iron with all the things you put me through
But girl I tell you I'm not lying when I say that you can hurt me too
Why is it I have to be strong?
