I had forgotten about this... just found it in an attached email. We had begun working on this and never finished it... Now Dai has gone... it is good to hear his voice again on a 'new' song. I don't think he'd mind me letting the world hear this.
Just a middle-aged guy who's been carrying song ideas around in his head for years and has decided to learn the craft and hopefully produce something decent eventually

Lyrics
All These Tears
(c) 2010 Greg Swartzentruber & Dai Crowther
I heard what she had to say; I let it all soak in
But these tears came on anyway and wasting them's a sin
She took her love away I know but I don't understand
Exactly why she had to go, this wasn't what I'd planned
The floodgates have burst open; I don't feel I can cope
To simply let them splash here; no, I won't let them mope
So I've given them instructions, to follow her around
And help to introduce her to the feel of falling down
Chorus:
These tears keep rolling down my reddened cheeks
They're trying to catch up to her, flowing like a creek
My tears are on a mission and it's her heart they seek
All these tears, all these tears
It's my tears that she's feeling, when her eyes well up
It's my tears she'll be drinking; from her loving cup
Can't imagine this is over, just because she's gone
Cuz my tears surely know her and they roll on and on
Chorus:
These tears keep rolling down my reddened cheeks
They're trying to catch up to her, flowing like a creek
My tears are on a mission and it's her heart they seek
All these tears, all these tears
Bridge:
She didn't leave a reason; she didn't leave a note
I didn't get to have my say: I didn't get to vote
She's the gentle lady; me, the hard-nosed guy
Would it help to change her mind if she knew that I could cry?
Chorus:
These tears keep rolling down my reddened cheeks
They're trying to catch up to her, flowing like a creek
My tears are on a mission and it's her heart they seek
All these tears, all these tears, all these tears
