(Intro – horns and organ swell) Mmm, yeah… You been hurt, baby, But the storm’s almost gone… (Verse 1) Don’t cry no more, woman, You done cried too long, You’ve been waitin’ on a good man, And I’ve been here all along. Your tears ain’t gonna change it, No reason to be blue, Don’t cry no more, woman — I’m right here lovin’ you. (Chorus) Dry them eyes, honey, Let your smile come through, Ain’t no heart too broken That a little love can’t glue. You don’t need no diamonds, You don’t need no proof, Don’t cry no more, woman — I swear my love is truth. (Verse 2) You gave all your sweet years To a man who did you wrong, But the good Lord sent me, baby, To help you carry on. Now the sun is risin’, And your dark days through, Don’t cry no more, woman — That man’s gone, and I’m true. (Bridge – preacher-style) Oh, when your world feels cold, And your nights get long, You just call my name, I’ll be right where I belong. I’ll wrap these arms around you, Like the Lord meant me to do, Don’t cry no more, woman — Let me take care of you. (Final Chorus) Dry them eyes, honey, Let your smile come through, Ain’t no heart too broken That my love can’t glue. You’ve been strong too long, Now let me be your truth, Don’t cry no more, woman — I’m right here lovin’ you. (Tag / Outro) Yeah… no more cryin’ now, baby, You done found somebody true… Don’t cry no more, woman — Your cryin’ days are through. [instrumental outro]
