    If You Cry A Tear

    IF YOU CRY A TEAR

     

    If you cry a tear tonight

    cry a tear for me,

    if you pray a prayer tonight

    pray a prayer for me.

    For my prayers

    are full of frozen tears

    my heart is growing cold .

    My dreams are full

    of foolish fears

    my soul is growing old .

    This world

    is making me cold

    walls grow around my heart.

    My dreams

    on how life and love should be

    have fallen all apart.

    So if you cry

    a tear tonight,

    cry a tear for me.

    Cry me

    a soul felt tear

    one to set me free.

    This damned world

    has made me

    too cold to cry my own.

    And if you

    pray a prayer tonight

    pray a prayer for me.

    For I have no one

    to prayer to,

    and my spirit stands

    all alone.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
