| Crying - Roy Orbison I was all right for a while I could smile for a while But then I say you last night you held my hand so tight as you stopped to say Hello, Oh you wished me well you couldn't tell that I'd been cry ing over you crying over you Then you said so long left me standing all alone alone and crying crying crying It's hard to understand but the touch of you hand can start me crying I thought that I was over you but it's true so true I love you even more than I did before But darling what can I do For you don't love me and I'll always be crying over you Yes now your gone and from this moment on I'll be crying crying crying crying Yeah crying crying over you |

| Born Roy Kelton Orbison on April 23rd 1936, he grew up in the heart of the Texan oil fields. He began playing and singing with local bands - his first was with The Wink Westerners. Roy moved on to The Teen Kings who - at Norman Petty's studio in Clovis, New Mexico - recorded a single which was only released locally. Acting on Johnny Cash's advice, Roy sent a copy of the song - Ooby Dooby - to Sun Records' founder Sam Phillips. Phillips liked what he heard, Roy drove to Memphis, and by June 1956 Sun had released its first Roy Orbison hit single. His hits were many.....Running Scared; Crying; Only the Lonely; Pretty Woman; Leah.....His three-octave voice was unique and a trademark in itself. Roy died suddenly in December 1988 of a heart attack.... His posthumously released in 1989, Roy's Mystery Girl album became the biggest selling record of his career. Another fine talent who is sorely missed... |
