Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Im crying, Im crying
The tears of joy!
Baby, Im crying Im crying
My tears of joy!
Im so happy, baby
Now that Im free again!
Im so glad you left me
With you Ive been such a long time man
I could do anything that I want
I follow the ways I choose
Since you finally decided to turn lose.

Im crying, Im crying
The tears of joy!
Honey, Im crying Im crying
My tears of joy!
Im so mixed up baby,
Its a . shame
Since you took your love away
And all the material things
We used to share.
Cant stop falling down form my eyes
The salty tears of love
You made a grown up cry
Like a little boy!

Honey sugar crying, Im crying
Our tears joy!
Freedom is such a bitter thing
Follow my problem...
I beg you baby, let it come to light
These tears start falling
Well make it alright!
I gotta do anything that I can
To bring you back here again!
When you walk through that door, these tears really be...

Baby Im crying, Im crying
Oh yeah our tears of joy!
Baby, Im crying, Im crying
Baby, Im crying, oh yeah
Baby, Im crying, Im crying
Cause Im begging you, baby
Let it come to light!
Begging you, begging you, begging you
Begging you, begging you, begging you




I said begging you, begging you, begging you
My tears of joy!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mr. Day's song "Tears of Joy" beautifully express the feeling of liberation and happiness after being free from a long-term relationship that was only holding the singer back. The opening lines "I'm crying, I'm crying, the tears of joy. Baby, I'm crying, I'm crying, my tears of joy," convey that the tears being shed are not out of sorrow or pain but sheer happiness. The singer is overwhelmed with joy and relief that they have been freed from being someone else's long-time man. The lines "I could do anything that I want, I follow the ways I choose, since you finally decided to turn loose," further reinforce this feeling of liberation and excitement about the future.


As the song continues, the singer candidly admits to being "so mixed up baby, it's a shame" and feeling sad about the memories that they shared with their ex. They miss the material things and love that they used to share, which is evident from the line "Can't stop falling down from my eyes, the salty tears of love, you made a grown-up cry like a little boy!" The song ends with the singer pleading and begging for their ex-lover to come back, promising to do everything in their power to make it right.


This song is not just about a relationship that has ended but a celebration of new beginnings and rediscovering oneself. The lyrics, paired with the upbeat and soulful music that Mr. Day is known for, create a perfect blend of emotions and a relatable story.
