I can't stand to see A good man go to waste One who never combs his hair Or shaves his face A man who leans on wine Over love that's told a lie Oh, it tears me up to see A grown man cry So I never go around mirrors I can't stand to see me Without you by my side No, I never go around mirrors Because I gotta heartache to hide I can't stand to be Where heartaches hang around It's so easy for the blues to get me down To see a grown man crawl Is more than I can stand And I look into the eyes of half a man So I don't go around mirrors I can't stand to see Me without you by my side No, I never go around mirrors Because I gotta heartache to hide And it tears me up to see A grown man cry
