I don't know about all that, it's a soap opera song. lol He's guy who is sleeping with another woman and tells her to leave because his wife (or main girlfriend) is coming back home

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

I hear it all the time. I have a couple of yacht rock stations on my streaming services. It rotates often.

It's not a tear jerker if you listen to the lyrics.

But a sad song is "I Keep Forgettin'" by Michael McDonald.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

I Keep Forgettin is more R&B than Yacht Rock and Sad Eyes is more Easy Listening

When I was a kid in the early 1980s, I listened
to this and other great songs on WCBS-FM -NY Radio station.
I still listen to WCBS-FM.
