The Yuki Onna's Sadness

Yuki onna San, Yuki onna San
Woman made of snow
Why do you cry so
Is it for loss of a husband 
Or is it for a loss of a child
Why yuki onna 
Why do you weep in despair 
And spread your icy tears everywhere 
Is it for loss of a friend
is it for loss of someone i may know
Why yuki onna why yuki onna San
Woman made of snow 
Do you scream your voice into the wind
Is it because you can't stand being alone 
Very well, I shall stay with you lovely queen of snow

note: No disrespect intended towards the Japanese culture, if the wrong honorific was used, please forgive my ignorance. i did do a little research, but could come up with no clear answer.
