Isn’t It Strange Don McLean

[Chorus]
Isn't it strange how a man hides his feelings?
Sometimes the one that he loves never knows
And isn't strange when she's finally leaving
That it all starts to show when she goes?

[Verse 1]
I passed my friend, he didn't look the way he did before
I always knew he was a stronger man than me
I asked my friend if he needed any help from me
He said, "She's all I need, I know you know
I only wish I had told her long ago"

[Chorus]
Isn't it strange how a man hides his feelings?
Sometimes the one that he loves never knows
And isn't strange when she's finally leaving
That it all starts to show when she goes?

[Verse 2]
"I once found love, but never got beyond my selfish dreams
I took for granted that she'd be there every day
I closed her out, knowing she could never change her lovin' ways
Things fell apart, and she got scared
I wonder if she knew how much I really cared"
