The lyrics from "I'll cry instead" have always touched a chord with me. And whenever those sad times come up, I go back to this wonderful Lennon composition to take my grief away. Did Lennon have the gift to see the future? How else would he know that these are exactly the words which express what I feel. No wonder Beatles is my all time favourite band.
Beatles - I'll Cry Instead Lyrics
I've got every reason on earth to be mad,
'cause I've justLost the only girl I had.
If I could get my way, I'd getMyself locked up today,
but I can't so I cry instead.
I've got a chip on my shoulder that's bigger than my feet,
I Can't talk to people that I meet.
If I could see you now,I'd try to make you sad somehow,
but I can't so I cry instead.
Don't want to cry when there's people there,
I get shy whenThey start to stare,
I'm gonna hide myself away, ay hay;
But I'll come back again someday.
And when I do you'd better hide all the girls,
I'm gonnaBreak their hearts all 'round the world.
Yes, I'm gonnaBreak them in two,
and show you what your loving man canDo,
until then I'll cry instead.
