Lyrics:
I had to escape
The city was sticky and cruel
Maybe I should have called you first
But I was dying to get to you
I was dreaming while I drove the long straight road ahead, uh-huh, yeah
Could taste your sweet kisses, your arms open wide
This fever for you was just burning me up inside
Crying to get to you
Is that all right?
Crying, crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep to make love to you
Is that all right?
Crying

I was a little boy, when I came down the steps in the middle of the night to get a drink and saw my father and mother dancing to this song. I stopped when I got to the bottom and watched. I can never remember being any happier as a little boy, when I went to bed. I have never heard this song, after that night without thinking of how my father was looking at my mother. they both loved Roy. 😎

I went to a Roy Orbison Concert in 1964, and only a couple hundred people were there. There he stood, on stage, black suit, skinny, in horned rim glasses and the sound system was not that great. But when Roy Orbison opened his mouth a bad sould system didn't matter. He stood there and sang hit after hit, including "Crying", nothing moving except his lips and fingers on the guitar. It was a fantastic performance, by the best. It's a wonderful memory. I'll never forget the concert I attended and saw and heard live the great Roy Orbsison when his voice was at its peak. Elvis Presley's favorite singer.

I've read that he was surprised by his success. When he did the "Black and White Night" album, all the other musicians (who were ALL very talented in their own right) would say "Oh, wow! That's Roy Orbison". He was deeply humbled. Dwight Yoakum (sp?) once said Roy's voice sounded like an "angel falling backward through a broken window". He's a fellow Texan, so I like him as a matter of pride.

I'm glad Roy Orbison had a resurgence in his career later in his life, and that his talent and influence on other musicians were recognized as they very well should be.

I am 67 years old and first heard this song as a teen and still tear up at the pain in Roy Orbison’s voice. Classic.

Roy Orbison had a very distinctive voice. It's a shame he died fairly young.

They did. People in Europe those days used to really listen to the music and only clapped at the end. I remember when Janis Joplin came to Europe she thought the people didn't like her because they didn't react like US audiences did.

Music from the 60's are just so pure and timeless.It's like good red wine as the years tick away it only gets better.The people who were in their youth during the 60's and listened to this day were just so blessed.I am say all this because I am 38 years of age.
