General information

Written by: A. Lee

A Single Tear was the first song ever to be written by Amy Lee. Amy wrote and recorded it for an English class when she was in the eighth grade.[1] When asked in an AOL Music interview if she remembers the first song she ever wrote, she responded with:

I think so. I don't know which one counts because at first, I thought I wanted to be a classical composer so there's one called Eternity of the Remorse. It's really depressing and very dramatic. [laughs] I have the sheet written out from when I was like eleven. But then the first real song, I wrote for English class in the eighth grade. We either had to write a short story or a song. I was like, 'I'm gonna do something nobody else is doing.' And I wrote this song and recorded it on a cassette tape, playing guitar and singing with a friend of mine from choir who did back up vocals. It was strange to me and I kinda became obsessed with it because remembering who I was, I was like the quite girl in the corner and then I played the tape and everybody was freaking out. My teacher showed it to all the classes. It was a really cheesy song. It was called A Single Tear ... 'Will linger here inside me forever.' Seriously, it was so bad but for an eighth grader, they thought it was pretty impressive.[2]


Lyrics

A single tear will linger here inside me forever
