Don't Cry 2020
Coin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I talk about the future
You've got your arms wrapped around my waist
But let's not talk about the future, no
Tonight is just another day

I can't take you serious, I'm serious
It's your birthday and you're acting all mysterious
You're so concerned about your future, yeah
But tomorrow's just another day

Don't cry
Don't cry
Alright
Oh, it's all gonna be alright

We were summer late-bloomers
Fumbling through our teen age
We used to talk about the future
Remember when we couldn't wait?

I can't take you serious, I'm serious
It's your party and you're still in bed, you won't get dressed
I I I I can't take you serious, are you serious?

Don't cry
Don't cry
Alright
Oh, it's all gonna be alright

Years go by whether you want them to
Years go by whether you want them to
Years go by whether you want them to
Years go by whether you want them to

Put on your make-up
I laid out your favorite sweater
It's just a number
Darling, dry your eyes

Don't cry
Don't cry




Alright
Oh, it's all gonna be alright

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Don't Cry 2020" by Coin deal with the theme of the future and the passing of time. In the opening lines, the singer talks about the future while their partner embraces them, but they don't want to discuss it, wanting to focus on the present. However, the singer finds it difficult to take their partner seriously because they are acting mysteriously on their own birthday, worrying about what lies ahead. They remind them that tomorrow is just another day, emphasizing the fleeting nature of time.


The second verse takes the listener on a trip down memory lane as the singer reminisces about their teenage years when they used to talk about the future with eagerness. But now, in the present, their partner is still in bed on their birthday, making it hard for the singer to take them seriously. The bridge acknowledges that years pass by whether we want them to or not, but urges the listener to put things in perspective and not to cry, as everything will be alright.


The lyrics are a reminder to cherish the present moment and not to get bogged down worrying about the future or regretting the past. The song portrays the sentiment of living in the moment and enjoying life as it is, rather than being obsessed with the uncertainty of the future.
