    Cassette demo, recorded on a Walkman one afternoon in July 1984 at Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs, NY when no one else was around. Written as a reply to "The First To Cry" by Happy Rhodes, after I'd seen her perform her song.
    Credits: Writer/Performer: Joel Young

    Story Behind the Song
    Anyone familiar with the music of Happy Rhodes has probably heard her song "The First To Cry".
    I met Happy in the Spring of 1984 at Caffe Lena where I was staying while travelling around the U.S.
    Happy was still unknown at the time and she was performing on Lena's Open Mic night. One of the songs she sang was "The First To Cry". Only a day or two later I wrote "I'll Cry For You" as a reply to her song.
    I've never gotten around to properly recording it in a studio, but here it is from that long ago day in July 1984... just me and my guitar.
