Tekst piosenki 'When Men Grow Old' wykonawcy Babyface

So many years that you sacrificed,
So many chances you let go by.
And girl never once did
You once 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'll stay, well.
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.

Chorus
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, well.
But now it seems like that he's always gone,
And he won't admit there is something wrong.
He finds a young girl who will take your place, well.
The first thing you do,
You go get your hair done.
But he doesn't notice a thing,
It's not how it's s'posed to be.

Chorus

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?

Chorus
