When Men Grow Old - Babyface

So many years that you sacrificed

So many chances you let go by

And girl never once did

you complain, no way

And now he’s got nerve just to criticize

You let yourself go, like you’ve got no pride

You do what you do hoping he will stay

The first thing you do is put on your make up

But he doesn’t notice a thing

It’s not how it’s s’posed to be

When men grow old

Do they lose sensitivity

When men grow old

They forget how to love

When men grow old

They have no sense of loyalty

Well if that’s how it is

I don’t wanna grow anymore

So many nights when you sat alone

He’s out with his friends like he’s got no home

But you understood that he needed his space

But now it seems like that he’s always gone

And he won’t admit that

there’s something wrong

He finds a young girl who will take your place

The first thing you do,

you go get your hair done

But he doesn’t notice a thing

It’s not s’posed to be that way

Time after time

Year after year

So many women are drowning in tears

Waiting and hoping and praying for love

Something that most men don’t

know the true meaning of

Why can’t they just open their hearts,

don’t they fall in love
