Reba McEntire - I Heard Her Cryin' Lyrics






The whole night in the kitchen
Saying words we'll both regret
And you scream you we're leaving
And you cursed the day we met

The sound goes above the slamming door
And broken dishes thrown around the floor
So loud it made us stop
It was the sound of a teardrop

When I heard her crying
Thought she was tucked away in bed
I heard her crying
Wish we could take back what we said
I didn't think she was old enough to know
Oh Lord we must have hurt her so
When she begged you not to go
I heard her crying

Well I'd have given anything
For time to erase
When I turned around and saw
Those little tears roll down her face

Oh my heart nearly broke in two
When she said
Mommy what did I do
To make you and daddy mad
Oh I'm sorry I was bad

I looked at you and you looked at me
And we felt each other's shame
Kneeling down to hold our child
Said she was not to blame
Now sometimes when we're angry
And say things that aren't true
We still love each other
And baby we love you

When I heard her crying
Thought she was tucked away in bed
I heard her crying
Wish we could take back what we said
I didn't think she was old enough to know
Oh Lord we must have hurt her so
When she begged you not to go
I heard her crying

    A cold night in the kitchen
    Saying words we'll both regret
    And you scream you we're leaving
    And you cursed the day we met

    The sound goes above the slamming door
    And broken dishes thrown around the floor
    So loud it made us stop
    It was the sound of a teardrop

    [Chorus]
    When I heard her crying

    I heard her crying
    Wish we could take back what we said

    When she begged you not to go

    IN MEMORY OF JIM RICHARDS

    @RideLifeAway i don't think divorce is eaiser on any kid,divocre is hard on everybody no matter the age..young kids always think it's their fault where as older they understand what's going on but doesn't mean it won't effect them any..my parents divorced when i was a child and i'm 21 now and it was hard on me because my father quit talking to me and my siblings,,things get A LOT better trust me!! keep your head up my dear! =)

  20. R.... ....

    ..... I know the feeling ..... sucks with parents fighting all the time. And I still wonder if divorce is easier on younger kids or on older kids... I'm 19 and I know my parents divorce right now is really killing me. Hope it gets better when its all finalized

  21. J.... H....

    What a beautiful singer. I've only discovered her recently and boy i've got a lot of making up to do . Keep it up Reba babe

  22. r.... m....

    i hate my parents fighting :'(

  23. d.... b....

    BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, BEAUTIFUL VOICE. SUCH A GIFT SHE IS

  24. C.... ....

    great photos and a great song! Thanks for sharing!

    @OxBaybieGurlXo - Want you to know I'm no religious freaky person, but yes keep going and keep in mind we all have hurts. Hope the best for you. :)

  26. S.... *....

    @OxBaybieGurlXo I'm glad I made you feel better if only for a moment. But thing is, the people who hurt you the most are usually the people you care about the most. It is absolutely not your fault. I do believe that the person who has hurt you, is one who is also hurting or has also been hurt in the past...maybe the sameway. Here's a thought. Tune into Joyce Meyer on You Tube or tv. She's been there and is great. Whatever you do, do not lose faith. God cares. I care. xox

  27. S.... *....

    @OxBaybieGurlXo - I'm sorry you have to go though such sadness but do hang in there, God has a good plan for you. Sending you blessings and a prayer. :-)

  28. P.... M....

    :20 is an AMAZING picture of Reba:) I love her, she's timeless and only getting better!!

  29. D.... D....

    so lovely and talented both as a singer and actress. thanks for this

  30. J.... S....

    Isn't there a faster version of this song on one of her albums/singles? Of course, I could be speeding it up in my memory...

  31. M.... E....

    @SusieLuchsingerfan1 She sure is! In fact, I'm going to see her in concert along with George Strait, LeAnn Womanek! I got 7th row seat! And got tickets when they were sold out!! I got them for 185!!

  32. S.... *....

    Reba tells a real sad story in this song. Too bad it's so true for so many. It made me feel the pain that abused people feel. I shed a tear while listenning.
    Love your show too Reba.

  33. C.... ....

    nice video

  34. j.... ....

    Reba is for me the best female vocalist at this moment and I think she will alway's be, just like Marty Robbins for me for the male singers.Their songs are just like little storybooks.I love to hear this great beautiful woman sing.Thank you for posting this vid.
