Originally titled "I Am Crying" and written for Don Gibson, Roy Orbison decided to record the song himself. "I Am Crying" was shortened to "Crying" to make it sound less country. Supposedly, Orbison wrote the song about an old girlfriend. Orbison's voice was perfect for "Crying" adding a layer of credibility to a great song.
