When A Woman

He met her in his hometown a couple of years ago
She was beautiful inside and out
How could he just let her go?
He had girls on the side and he tried to hide
But somehow she knew
Still she stayed, she stayed
But she would always cry every night
But then he noticed a change
She no longer had tears on her bed
When a woman stops crying
You best believe she has a new plan
She's preparing for something new
Something that doesn't include you
When a woman ceases to cry
She's 'bout ready to say goodbye
When you stay out late
She don't call to ask where you are
She just gives you this look when you come back
That says better watch your back
Fellas listen to your girl when she says
She's all cried out
You better pray that she stays
She no longer cries every night
If she doesn't complain anymore
She is walking her way to that front door
When a woman stops crying
You best believe she has a new plan
She's preparing for something new
Something that doesn't include you
When a woman ceases to cry
She's 'bout ready to say
Just as long as she is arguing
Fussing and complaining
As long as she will cry sometimes
Everything is alright
But as soon as she is quiet
When you mess up, she's silent
And has a certain smile upon her face
When a woman stops crying
You best believe she has a new plan
She's preparing for something new
Something that doesn't include you
When a woman ceases to cry
When a woman stops crying
When a woman stops crying
When a woman stops crying over you
