Sting – Why Should I Cry For You? Lyrics 2 years ago
Sting had a strained relationship with his father. He wrote this song about that. The reference to sailing is picking up on a comment by his father, that he should go to sea, maybe reflecting his fathers own regret that he didn't adventure. The song is poignant to me because of my own relationship with my father.
