I'm Too Big to Cry

Marty Robbins · Country 1951-1958 [1991]

I guess I never realized

How lonesome I could be

I never thought the time would come

When you'd grow tired of me

Your voice was never sweeter than

The day you said goodbye

You never know how much I hurt

Cause I'm too big to cry



If I knew then what I know now

You'd still be kissin' me

Instead there's someone elses lips

Where my two lips should be

I say, hello, and wish you well

Each time as you walk by

You never know how much I hurt

Cause I'm too big to cry



You never did look lovelier

Than when you walked away

When I can't sleep I don't count sheep

I count mistakes I've made

I can't believe you don't love me

No matter how I try

You never know how much I hurt

Cause I'm too big to cry



It seems so strange to be alone

I never dreamed we'd part

The tears that fall, you'll never see

There fallin' in my heart

To go through life without you're love

I guess I'd rather die

You never know what I go through

Cause I'm too big to cry
