He calls you from the office
And he tells you that he's sorry
But it looks like he'll be working late again

And he asks you how your day went
But he didn't say he missed you
And he'd rather be home with you and the kids

Then suddenly the day has lost its meaning
And you find it hard to hold the tears inside
And the tears begin to fall

And another day's gone by
As you dry the tears from your eyes
Just another reason why a woman cries

You ask him if he'd call you
When he's working late again
But it's nine o'clock and still he hasn't called

And the dinner fixed with special care
Is getting cold and he's not there
You wonder if he really cares at all

Another lonely night and he's not with you
And you find it hard to hold the tears inside
And the tears begin to fall

And another day's gone by
As you dry the tears from your eyes
Just another reason why a woman cries

Now you push aside the curtains
And you're looking out the window
And the kids are playing with him in the yard

He takes you out occasionally
And once more you're a family
And he thought about your birthday after all

It's then you know the reason why you love him
And he'll never know the joy you feel inside
And all the tears you've cried

Just a part of a woman's life
When a woman's happy inside
It's another reason why a woman cries

Just another reason why a woman cries
