    This song is such an underrated masterpiece, not only because it sounds great but because it delivers a great message. This song reminds us that no matter how lonely we feel or how sad we feel, we will always be loved. This song always makes me feel very emotional but in the end it makes me feel very happy and grateful! Thank you T.O.K. for such an amazing nostalgic song!!

    I grew up on this song, but at a point in time I forgot the name. The only thing that kept it in my memory was the chorus. 'When you cry, I cry'. And today, I finally found it back. Thank god for that.

    Cry, cry, cry
    One set of footprints in ah di sand
    And yuh ah grumble and ah so you think it should ah be two
    'Member one thing mi youth a Father God have the plan
    So when you see one set of footprints ah God ah carry you
    "Hurry up and come back"
    Was the last thing she said to her son
    The day his life was taken
    She didn't know he wouldn't come back
    He died from the bullet of a gun
    And now her little boy is gone
    She said "Help me, Lord help me"
    And she looked up to the sky
    And she heard a voice reply
    When you cry, I cry
    I cry along with you
    When you smile, I smile
    I smile along with you
    When you cry, I cry
    I cry along with you
    When you smile, I smile
    I smile along with you
    Another baby left homeless
    Abandoned when he was two
    So the street side kids at the shopping mall was the family he knew
    It's not easy being homeless
    Sometimes you have to do, what you have to do
    And he didn't have a mom or dad to help him get through
    He said "Help me, Father help me"
    And he looked up to the sky
    And he heard a voice reply
    When you cry, I cry
    I cry along with you
    When you smile, I smile
    I smile along with you
    When you cry, I cry (Based on a true story)
    I cry along with you
    When you smile, I smile (Keep yuh head up)
    I smile along with you
    It was early Sunday morning, me get up ah watch the news
    Den me hear say last night a sea view dem kill ah youth
    Den, mamma tell me say her church sister Jacqueline
    Just lose her brother over sea view garden
    When she tell me, jah jah know it, mash me up, nuh tell me lie
    But yuh know say man a thuggist so yuh nuh go see me cry
    Everyday and everynight she still ah ask the father why
    Her brother had to die
    She heard ah voice reply
    When you cry, I cry
    I cry along with you
    When you smile, I smile
    I smile along with you
    When you cry, I cry
    I cry along with you
    When you smile, I smile
    I smile along with you
    When you cry, I cry
    I cry along with you
    When you smile, I smile
    I smile along with you
    When you cry, I cry
    I cry along with you
    When you smile, I smile
    I smile along with you

    I remember when this tune first released and a LOT of DJs were afraid to play it. It wasn't jiggy or 'sellawf' at all. It didn't make the girls wanna get half naked and invite man to the dance with hardcore wine. But when the real DJs stepped up and reminded us all of the core of reggae music, they soon followed suit because the people got to hear and appreciate a truly brilliant and heart felt song from TOK that everyone conscious fell in love with. Peace and love to all true conscious reggae listeners out there. Your heart don't sell out, it can't, it won't. That's because you care and have love for the world and its children. That is a real blessing right there. 2017 a come.
