Make Me Cry Lyrics

In every sea there's a mouth of a river
Where waterfall riches flow down
Why do they cry?
No one knows why
In every mouth there's a word of forgiveness
That melts all the ice to the ground
Why do you sigh?
I don't know why

Why does the sky fall down
Like pouring rain?
To let it flow again
Gonna make you feel alright
Take your dreams, keep them out of sight
Wanna make you come alive
Close your eyes, keep you warm at night
So come a little closer to me
So many things I want you to see
My darling

In every laugh is the sorrow
Of all of the tears that you've held for so long
Would you make me cry?
Oh, let me run dry
In every tear are the eyes of a father
And mother that brought you to see
Sing lullaby
As you say goodnight, night, night (Goodnight)

Why do the stars look down (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and 10)
And feel no shame (Counting up the droplets of the tears falling from the sky)
When they are all the same?
Gonna set your mind alight
Keep you close to me and hold you tight
Wanna keep you burning bright
Take your words, shine them like a light
So come a little closer to me (Come a little closer)
So many things I want you to see (Many think I want you to see)
My darling

In every soul is the need to grow older
To speed up the passing of time
I don't know why
But it makes me cry

What is the Meaning of Make Me Cry?

This poignant piece delves into the paradox of human emotions and experiences. It explores how joy and sorrow, love and loss are interconnected in life's journey. The lyrics suggest that even in moments of happiness, there can be underlying sorrow, as represented by the line "In every laugh is the sorrow." Furthermore, it touches on existential questions about why natural phenomena occur, reflecting our own emotional states. The repeated invitation to "come a little closer" indicates a longing for connection and understanding amidst these complexities. Ultimately, the song is a meditation on the human condition, expressing both acceptance of its inherent contradictions and a yearning for deeper meaning.
