Lyrics Cried Too Long - Irma Thomas

Cried Too Long

There’s nothing to do but walk away
There’s nothing but true, true words to say
But the truth isn’t kind
It brings tears to sometimes
I may be sad but I’m strong
I know I’ve cried too long
I’ve made up my mind
It’s time to leave these tears behind
And start to believe
The bad times are gone
And I’ll carry on
Though I can’t right every wrong
I know I’ve cried too long
There’s no place to go but up from the ground
And it’s gonna be harder to put me back down
But I’ve found a way
To turn dark into day
Yes I knew it all along
Seems that I’ve cried too long
