(I just started on/finished this, it was a keystyle.) "And I Never Cried" Watastar (9/2004) It was a beautiful day So beautiful And before I knew it, You walked out With her I don't remember who came out first, You or her But it was obvious that you were together I mean really together And other people were around, So I tried to look without staring, you know? But anyway, there you were With her On the lawn, The beautiful green lawn And white covered your body from head to toe You looked absolutely gorgeous, And she was also in white from her head to her toes She looked beautiful, why would I hate on her anyway? And you two were together I mean really together And again, people were around, And so I tried to look without staring...you know? At one point, I swear I wanted to break outta that joint But no, you are my friend.. How could I do that? But the dilemma I faced Was either leaving and wronging my friend Or Staying and shedding tears not really of joy But of sadness Eventhough I really was happy for your happiness But still, Some people who were around knew what I once meant to you And though I did very well not to look to see if they were looking at me at the times I held the urge to tear the most, I knew they were searching for every possible reaction of such a kind, eventhough they probably did everything in their power to not at me or to look yet not stare You know people.. Anyway, You walked with her And I looked as she looked into your eyes And I looked as you looked into her eyes What I felt in my heart was the truth of Love And how could I ever hate on Love? I could not, But still, somewhere deep inside of me, I wanted to run.. Not to escape it.. and not to keep from crying, But to keep from OTHER people seeing me cry I am a woman of much pride.. but you know that. Still, I am an honest woman So, the thought again arose, Do I stay and risk shedding tears that are not tears of joy Or do I leave and cry all I want? No.. I could not do that.. He is my friend and you do not do that to your friends... So then, it is time for the water libation The more the water poured, the more the names called, The better I felt Truth be told, I asked The Great Spirit and The Ancestors To just let me make it through this whole thing Without crying Well, I started to feel better and better as I stayed Actually, I was already happy about your happiness But I got even happier Yes But still Somewhere Inside of me, I felt to cry. Maybe one of those cries of release, I don't know.. not so much of regret, But still.. And as you said,"I do", I felt glad.. Glad that you were happy And glad that I was now free to go and to cry But come to think of it, I never cried... But, maybe I should Just maybe I should just go ahead and have that final cry Yeah... Maybe I should...
