I Cried Again
Unspoken Sorrow: Wanda Jackson's Heartfelt Tale in 'I Cried Again'
Lyrics
Teardrops fell the night you said
Teardrops fell when you expressed love and got married to someone else
I love you, dear and you were wed
Expressing the pain of witnessing your commitment to another person
I watched you while you held her hand
Observing you holding her hand, causing emotional distress
Sand I bowed my head and cried again
Feeling heartbroken and bowing head in sorrow and tears
I cried again when I reached home
Continuing to cry upon reaching home and contemplating the past
Then stared your picture all alone
Gazing at your picture, reminiscing about what could have been
I've thought of things that might have been
Reflecting on missed opportunities and unrealized dreams
And I bowed my head and cried again
Bowing the head in sorrow and tears once again
I took your letters from the shelf
Taking out your letters, seeking solace in memories
And read aloud just to myself
Reading the letters aloud, perhaps for a sense of closeness
But just before I reached the end
Interrupted emotions as you near the end of the letters
And I bowed my head and cried again
Bowing the head in sorrow and tears once again, perhaps at the finality
I've thought of nights so long ago
Recalling past nights filled with longing and unfulfilled love
And all the love I wanted so
Reflecting on the love that was desired but never attained
And then the fate had took a hand
Fate intervening and altering the course of love
And I bowed my head and cried again
Bowing the head in sorrow and tears as the impact of fate is felt
