I Cry Real Tears

(album: I Represent - 2001)

You ought to be ashamed of yourself,
The way you talk down to me
Oh, baby
And didn't anybody ever teach you
To act more respectfully

I'm telling you that I'm only human, too
Don't you realize
Look at my face
What do you see in my eyes
When a part of me just dies

I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks, and when it aches
My eyes cry real tears

You treat me like you think I'm made of stone
Like when I'm cut I don't bleed
Oh baby
Don't you know that I'm flesh and bone
So what do you want from me

I'm telling you that I'm only human, too
Don't you realize
Look at my face
What do you see in my eyes
When a part of me just dies

I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks, and when it aches
My eyes cry real tears

There's something called the golden rule
Some day you'll wish you'dve followed it more
You've been a fool
My love is truer than any love you'll find
But I'm worth so much more, and so is my time

(I cry)
I cry real tears
I have real fears
I've got a heart that's beating inside
Sometimes it breaks, and when it aches
My eyes cry real tears
(Oo yeah)
My eyes cry real tears
(I've got a heart that's beating inside for you, babe)
My eyes cry real tears
(And every little teardrop, they fall from my eyes, they fall for you)
My eyes cry real tears
(My eyes, they cry real tears)
(My eyes, they cry real tears)
