Story Behind The Song

One night I was crying but no tears fell. Just dry old feelings, mostly about my brother who died in a car accident. I thought wow what a song title, Dry Tears. So I put it into a more current theme tapping into those emotions.

Song Description

A man reflects on lost love. He realizes it's time to go on with his life after a time of grief. He has succumbed to acceptance.

Turn Around

Verse 1
New Years Eve and I?m all alone
The flame still burns, but my hearts cold
As the winter snow, Oh, Oh
Right here last year her warmth held me close
Now her memory haunts me like a ghost
Throughout our empty home, Oh, Oh

*Chorus*
Looking back I start to cry
One last time but my well has run dry
I guess it?s time I said goodbye
Feeling like I died inside
Her memories clear but I just cry dry tears
There?s nothing left, Oh why?
Dry tears, dry tears, goodbye

Turn Around

Verse 2
New Years Day and I?m not afraid
To face the pain of yesterday
Guess I?m letting go, Oh, Oh
A year of grief has run its course
I blamed myself filled with remorse
But it?s not my fault Oh, no

Bridge
We didn?t have to drive that night
But she wanted to get home
On our way a car crossed the line
We laid her to rest that Sunday in the snow
Oh, Oh, the cold and lonely snow

*Chorus*

Coda
Dry tears, I hope Miranda hears my goodbye
Dry tears, dry tears, goodbye

Turn Around / Fine?
