The band Reamonn began in 1990 in Freiburg, Germany with a classified advertisment from Rea in the paper. "Irish singer is looking for band for recording and tour". It didn't take long for Mike to contact Rea. He knew Sebi, who played in a band with Uwe. Uwe told Phil about the project they were doing and suddenly he was there too. Reamonn was born...
Reamonn is currently on hiatus, with vocalist Rea Garvey focusing on his solo career at the moment.

To make it all OK
I just want a day
To make it all OK
You, could you teach me
How to cry
You, could you teach me
How to cry
I just want one day
To showyou I've got heart
I just want one day
To show you I've got heart
You, could you teach me
How to cry
You, could you teach me
How to cry
My eyes are dry - so bone dry
You, could you teach me
How to cry
You, could you teach me
How to cry
My eyes are dry - so bone dry
Could you - would you - will you
Teach me how to cry
Could you - would you - will you
Teach me how to cry
Could you - would you - will you
Teach me how to cry
Could you - would you - will you
Teach me how to cry
How to cry
The lyrics of Reamonn's song "Just A Day" speak of the desire to have just one day to make things alright, to show that one has heart and to learn how to cry. The singer seems to be in a situation where they feel emotionally numb and unable to express themselves. They want to feel something, and they want help with that. They are asking the person they are speaking to, "You, could you teach me how to cry?"
The repeated phrase "My eyes are dry - so bone dry" emphasizes the emotional state of the singer. They are not just saying that they are not crying, but that they are incapable of crying, their emotions are completely shut off. They want to learn how to access those emotions again, to feel something.
The song could be interpreted in different ways, but at its core, it is about the human need to feel and connect emotionally, and how difficult it can be to do so when one is emotionally stuck or numb.
