Crying
Tony Evans And His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've got me crying again
You've got me sighing again
What is this love all about?
I'm in, I'm out
Your kisses right from the start
Came from your lips, not your heart
You make me happy and then
Somebody new looks good to you
You've got me crying again




Just crying for you

Overall Meaning

In this song, "Crying", Tony Evans And His Orchestra express the emotional turmoil and vulnerability experienced in a tumultuous romantic relationship. The lyrics capture the singer's sense of frustration and confusion about the nature of love and their own fluctuating feelings. The first two lines, "You've got me crying again, You've got me sighing again," reveal the deep emotional impact that the person has on the singer, causing them to cry and sigh repeatedly.


The singer then questions the authenticity of the love they share, pondering, "What is this love all about?" They express their ambivalence by saying "I'm in, I'm out." This suggests that the state of their relationship is in constant flux, with them never being entirely certain of their feelings or where they stand with their partner.


The lyrics go on to highlight the discrepancy between the physical and emotional aspects of the relationship. The singer mentions that although they receive kisses from their partner, those kisses originate from the lips and not the heart. This implies that the affection displayed by their partner lacks sincerity or depth, only serving as a temporary source of happiness.


Moreover, the singer reveals their vulnerability by acknowledging that their partner's attention can quickly shift to someone new. They state, "You make me happy and then, somebody new looks good to you." This indicates a pattern of emotional instability and a tendency for their partner to seek new attractions, leaving the singer feeling heartbroken and crying once again.


Overall, "Crying" portrays a tumultuous relationship marked by emotional highs and lows, the uncertainty of love's true meaning, and the pain of feeling replaced.


Line by Line Meaning

You've got me crying again
Once again, you have caused me to shed tears


You've got me sighing again
Once again, you have caused me to let out deep breaths of sadness


What is this love all about?
I am puzzled by the true nature and purpose of this feeling called love


I'm in, I'm out
My emotions fluctuate between being fully involved and then detached


Your kisses right from the start
From the very beginning, your kisses seemed to lack genuine emotion


Came from your lips, not your heart
They were merely physical gestures from your lips, devoid of any true sentiment


You make me happy and then
You bring me moments of joy and contentment, but


Somebody new looks good to you
You easily find attraction towards others, seeking novelty in your relationships


You've got me crying again
Once again, you have brought me to tears


Just crying for you
All my tears are solely dedicated to you
