Extensive touring in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and the UK lays the foundation for what is predicted to be a long and successful music career.
With her crystal voice, ranging from raw and powerful to intimate and soft, Dagny describes her music as an “emotional rollercoaster” with playful peaks and melancholic drops, “just as life itself” she says. Her greatest love is performing, and to the stage she brings her intimate lyrics, harmonies and feelings, blended in a modern folk/pop blender filled with everything from darkness to eternal optimism.
Let Me Cry
Dagny Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Talk when I shouldn't cross over the line
Sometimes I rage like a fire
And I wanna warn you before we go too far
I'm from the north so I always act strong
I'll be the last one to say that I'm wrong
And I can be overemotional
Just wanna warn you before we go too far
I admit that I could really use someone
Someone to let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry, yeah
Someone to let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry, yeah
Let me be the one I'm always scared to be
See me at my worst and still be there for me
So go on let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry, yeah
You've got a habit of doubting yourself
Even more scared of the dark than myself
Once every blue moon you fall down below
But I'll catch you before you go too far
Yeah it's alright with me
I can see that you could really use someone
Someone to let you cry
Let you cry
Let you cry
Let you cry, yeah
Someone to let me cry
Let you cry
Let you cry
Let you cry, yeah
It would never get me thinking less of you
Promise that I'll always see the best in you
Oh I'ma let you cry
Let you cry
Let you cry
Let you cry, hey
Hey
Oh
I will always keep my arms wide open
I will be your back when yours is broken
Carry all your weight upon my shoulders
If you could just do the same
Someone to let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry, yeah
Someone to let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry, yeah
Let me be the one I'm always scared to be
See me at my worst and still be there for me
So go on let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry, hey
Hey
Oh
Hey
Let me be the one I'm always scared to be
See me at my worst and still be there for me
So go on let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry
Let me cry, hey
