Interpretation



"Won't Cry" is a love song about "fulfill" and "promise". This beautiful love story was played slowly only with piano. The whole song is based on the piano, and the string is weaving a lyrical scene. The atmosphere of a love movie; the lyrics are the first person of the boy, and the mood transition and story line of this love; a few short lyrics that illustrates the love between men and women because they consider each other too much. The delicate thoughts express their enthusiasm, which makes them easy to resonate and bring in feelings; each love has its own grievances and helplessness. Even if it is going to break up, it is necessary to "won't cry " and smile.
