Tears of Joy

Story Behind The Song

This tune is for all those poor dudes that have been shown the door too many times.

Song Description

I originally had written this as an instrumental. I've added bluesy lyrics to set the tone in the first half of the song and then the instruments pick it up and carry it through to the conclusion. I think this unusual structure works well for this song.

Song Length 3:19 Genre Blues - General, Jazz - General
Tempo Medium Slow (91 - 110) Lead Vocal Male Vocal
Mood Heartbreaking, Depressing Subject Breaking Up, Bad Love
Era 2000 and later

Lyrics

Tears of Joy
copyright 2006
John Paul Bolcar

I hear that noise once again
It's crawlin right into my head
I can't believe
that you think it's time I leave

Tell me a lie
I'll believe it
throw me a line
I can hang on to
why do you treat me like a birdy
swingin in a cage
this time I think I'll cry
tears of joy

This time I might fly
I need you but I need me too
If misery's alls left that you show for my love
then I'll have to leave it with you

Tears of joy
I'll miss you
not as much as you'd want me to
you can bet your gonna need me

Play me those blues once again
She couldn't mean what she said
I can't believe
that I'm gone and I am free
