Story Behind The Song
"She Weeps Alone" reflects the lead singer's childhood memories visiting his grandfather's grave at the request of his grandmother, every Christmas day.*******A FAN'S Comments below after seeing the music video on the Country Music Channel in AUS sums it up nicely****** ?Hi there, Just popped on your website because I just saw your clip for She Weeps Alone on CMC. It actually pulled me over to the TV because I was sitting in the same room but doing some work on the computer not really paying attention, and the song made me move over to the tv and listen. I really enjoyed it, the words were sad, but nice, and I felt a bit choked up cuz of that really sweet lady in it. She was lovely! I don't actually know any of your music, and hadn't seen you on tv before, but I will be sure to look out for you again! Might request it again! Thanks, keep up the great work. Music is awesome!? - Emma.

Lyrics
One rainy day around Xmas My grandmother took me by the hand She said son you got to take me to a place just out of town Today I want to be with my old man And as we drove up the dusty road I could see her in the mirror Her eyes where open wide And when we got to the open gates, She was on her way And for the first time in my life I saw what forever really meant Chorus She walks toward his grave And lays the flower she saved Then bathes the tired stone And then she weeps alone Dear beloved husband, my best friend, she said Wasn?t 65 too young I?m here to wash and change the colours in your room And I?m here today with our grandson And then she talked of the better days, When they were young and on their way And how life just ain?t the same no more And then she gazed with her open eyes And then I realized, for the first time in my life, I saw what forever really meant Chorus
