about

A sad expression of hopeless love gently drenched by the harmonies, guitar sounds and strings of times gone past. This song was particularly driven by my love of late 60s, early 70s folk rock, songs like ‘Draft Morning’ by The Byrds and ‘Moonlight Mile’ by The Stones. Once the cellos (Clara Schutz) and violins (Ewan Baker) were added, the song was elevated to something more dramatic and majestic.

lyrics

Feel the rain drops upon my face in the morning
In the stillness, I feel your heartbeat racing
Tear away the shackles that can bind

Cry tears, cry tears, cry tears

Feel the breeze blow across my face in the evening
Comes a time when you can take nothing for granted
Hold me now, hold me through the pain

Cry tears, cry tears, cry tears

I’d be lost without ya
I’d be lost without ya

Cry tears, cry tears, cry tears
