Story Behind the Song

Dan describes a person grieving the loss of a loved one and how everyday moments—waking up alone, hearing a favorite song, coming home from work, simple routines—unexpectedly trigger tears. The song frames crying not as weakness but as something healing: a “good cry” that helps wash away sadness, bring relief, and allow grief to co-exist with warm, loving memories. In the end, crying becomes a way to move through loss with both pain and gratitude for what was shared.
