Story behind the song
I wrote this song while deployed near the DMZ in Korea. I missed my kids real bad. I tried to write a song full of comfort and compassion to them that would empower their sense candor about our being so far apart. In a way, its God speaking to us in the first person saying, "If your dreams break your heart, go ahead and cry, but keep dreaming, my child."
Lyrics
CRY ON MY SHOULDER
Words and music by Johnny Proctor
What you want can break your heart
I know how it feels
But there's a cry that cleanses us
And there's a cry that heals
My arms are here to take you
My love will not forsake you
Your dreams are sure to make you cry
Cry on my shoulder Baby, cry
Desire is a fire
Passion is a flame
But faithful love will always be the same
There's a strength that sorrow brings
Blessed now are you
God our Father holds all things
And he makes them new
My arms are here to take you
My love will not forsake you
Your dreams are sure to make you cry
Cry on my shoulder Baby, cry
