Crying
Heartache Harmony: Unveiling the Emotional Symphony of Glen Campbell's 'Crying'
Lyrics
I was all right for a while
I was emotionally stable for a period
I could smile for a while
I could pretend to be happy for a while
But I saw you last night
My emotional state changed when I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
You physically connected with me, holding my hand tightly
As you stopped to say hello
You paused to greet me
Oh you wished me well
You wished me well without realizing I had been crying
You couldn't tell that I'd been crying over you
You couldn't perceive that I had been crying over you
Crying over you
Expressing the continuation of crying over you
Since you said so long
Since the moment you said goodbye
Left me standing all alone alone
You left me alone and abandoned
And crying crying crying crying
Repetition emphasizes the ongoing intense emotional pain
It's hard to understand
Expressing difficulty in comprehending the emotional impact
That the touch of your hand can start me crying
Acknowledging that the touch of your hand triggers crying
I thought that I was over you
Previously believed to be over you emotionally
But it's true so true I love you even more than I did before
Realization that love has intensified rather than diminished
But darling what can I do for you
Expressing helplessness in the face of this love
No don't love me
Requesting not to love, but the emotional struggle persists
And I'll always be crying over you
Commitment to the enduring state of crying over you
Crying over you
Reiteration of the ongoing emotional pain
Yes now you're gone
Acknowledging your departure
But from this moment on
Committing to continuous emotional pain from this moment on
I'll be crying crying oh
Expressing ongoing and intense crying
Crying crying yeah crying crying over you
Reaffirmation of the persistent emotional distress
