He cried because of me
I knew he loved me
When I saw my baby cry
When I saw my baby cry
When I saw my baby cry
His tears were all I felt
Comin' to remember when the way
You turned me out when I was on my knees
When I see the way you have to struggle
He hit me with his belt
I rise up to the challenge 'cause
He cried because of me
I like to taste the sugar of your violent mood
Feel apologetic just because
Just like a stormy sea
I'm like your 'rent a clown'
That was some great victory
You're natural poetry to me
I knew that he loved me
When I saw my baby cry
You think that was one up for you
I'm not particularly suffering
I knew that he loved me
When you try and cut me down
Just to do a little simple thing
But I know I scored somethin' too
And push me back if I attack your attitude
His tears were all I felt
He hit me with his belt
So I let you take me down
I knew he loved me
That was some great victory
