Karaoké I Cried Brandy Clark

He was tough

Said he'd lived a good long life and he'd seen a lot

Watched eighty-two years fly by

And three kids grow up seen 'em all have kids and grandkids of their own

He was brave

He was scared to die well you couldn't see it on his face

Like a soldier he marched through his numbered days

Made his peace with God and then he was gone

And I cried oh I cried

I tried to hold my head high it ended up in my hands

And I cried

Oh I cried

There was nothing I could do so that was all I could do

She was strong

Held his hand when he was barely holdin' on

She told him don't worry 'bout me

I'll get along you go on to heaven go on and rest

Now she's alone

Livin' the life that's too much for one

Just last night on the telephone

I could hear the lonely in her laugh

And I cried oh I cried

Tried to hold my head high ended up in my hands

I cried

Oh I cried

There was nothing I could do so that was all I could do

I cried

Oh I cried

Tried to hold my head high it ended up in my hands

I cried oh I cried

There was nothing I could do so that was all I could do

Oh there was nothing

I could do so I cried
