How Shall I See You Through My Tears

Cast of Camp

Father, sister

Father, sister, dearest voices
I have found you and I don't know how
Father, sister, I hear your voices
But am I dreaming or are you here right now?
Can you tell me...

[chorus]
How shall I see you through my tears (Please tell me)
How shall I see you through my tears (I need to know)
How shall I see you through my tears (Yeah)

Father, sister, the gods have spoken
I bring a promise, a holy vow
A world that casts you out won't kiss you
And those who blame you sing your praises now
So can you tell me...

[chorus]

Destiny brings you back to me

Child I'm so glad I'm here
There's hope for me
There's a prophecy


Destiny brings you back to me
A world that casts you out
Will forgive you now
Destiny brings you back to me

I've been waiting for a sign
To ease my troubled mind

Ooooh...

[chorus]

How shall I see you through my tears(When I'm crying tears of sadness)
How shall I see you through my tears (Won't you turn them to tears of gladness)
How shall I see you through my tears, (Gladness, oh)

Tears, tears, tears

    Nice song. But I wonder... It sounds like this girl's father and sister were exiled and she's calling out for them. Or they've been gone such a long time and she can't help but weep (destiny brought them together) and she's recieved a word from the...gods. Maybe she's crying 'cuz they went through all that and now they're old. But forgiven... Somebody help me out!

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
