I Love a Man Who Can Cry

I Love a Man Who Can Cry

I love a man who can cry without feeling embarrassed

Who can smile at a sunset at the end of the day

Who can listen to a symphony and get a lump in his throat

Who can write down a song and then give it away 

I love a man who can see little babies

And get all mushy inside without questioning the joy
Who can hear a child's laugh and remember what fun is

Who plays with puppies and kittens like he's still just a boy

I love a man who is not ashamed to be vulnerable

Who can show me his weaknesses, his fears and his thoughts

At the same time being confident of who he really is

Who can be my strong shoulder when he knows that he ought

I love a man who can hurt and then be healed by love

Who can pray darkness gone and keep demons at bay

Who can show the whole world that he's not ashamed

Of the God that he knows that made him that way

I love a man who loves with his whole heart

Who needs his woman like a flame needs to burn

Who isn't shy about saying just how much he wants her

And what he will do to make her want him in return

I love a man that works hard and plays hard

But will take rainy days off without so much as a care

When his woman needs him to stay in that bed

And shut out the world like it's not even there

I love a man whose eyes light up when he smiles

But can darken with passion when I look deep in those eyes

Who will recite my poetry like Shakespearen sonnets

Or a song so worth singing that's his joy and his pride

I love a man who can slow dance for hours

In candlelight's glow without saying word one

Who will touch me so softly that it feels like a feather

But then hold me so hard that I cry when he's gone

I love a man with a strut in his walk

Who can make the heads turn when he walks in the room

But who doesn't look back at the heads when they turn

And saves himself for the woman who's his sun and his moon

I love a man who writes poetry for me

Who writes letters to me

Who sings songs just for me

And who shows me "the him" that no one else ever sees

I love a man who takes time and is kind

Who knows and who shows that he understands

Who will hold me when I need him, you can bet I won't leave him

For he needs all the same things that I need from my man.
