This song is about the mistakes we make in life and the ones we sometimes hurt.
The lyrics are narrated from the point of view of a Nurse as she watches an elderly man residing in a retirement home as he contemplates his life.

An Old Man Cries


Looking out the window, he sits alone in his chair
His old hands are shaking, all alone in despair
Still, thinks of all the chances that he let slip by
And it's not hard to notice a tear well in his eyes

Oh, it's so hard, and I don't know why
Seems beyond all reason to watch an old man cry

Bridge

Those many years wasted had no time to give
I guess there's still tomorrow, but short time to live
Heartwarming embraces from those that care
So let this be a warning, love's not so hard to share

Oh, it's so hard, and I don't know why
Seems beyond all reason to watch an old man cry
