don't cry
Guns N Roses [www.musikaki.blogspot.com] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If we could see tomorrow
What of your plans?
No one can live in sorrow
Ask all your friends.

Times that you took in stride
They're back in demand
I was the one who's washing
Blood off your hands

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

I know the things you wanted
They're not what you have
With all the people talking
It's driving you mad

If I was standing by you
How would you feel?
Knowing your loves decided
And all love is real

Yeah baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

I thought I could live in your world
As years all went by
With all the voices I've heard
Something has died

And when your in need of someone
My heart won't deny you
So many seem so lonely
With no one left to cry to baby

And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby, maybe someday

Don't you cry




Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight

Overall Meaning

Don't Cry is a poignant and deeply emotional song by the American rock band Guns N' Roses. The lyrics are a reflection of the pain and turmoil of a relationship on the rocks. The first stanza ponders what tomorrow holds and questions the plans you've made while acknowledging that we all feel sorrow sometimes. The second verse seems to refer to a time when things were good, but now things are different. The blood on the hands could be a reference to some past hurt or wrongdoing that's come back to haunt the relationship. The chorus urges the partner not to cry, even though things are tough. The singer insists that they still love the partner and that there's a heaven above them. The final verse is a reflection on how things have changed, and nothing seems the same. The singer assures the partner that they will always be there - a shoulder to cry on. The final line is a note of hope that someday, things could be better.


Don't Cry is one of Guns N' Roses' most successful songs, and it is still featured in many of their live performances. Its lyrics have been the subject of much debate and interpretation. Some critics have suggested that the song is about the turbulent relationship between Axl Rose and his then-girlfriend, Erin Everly. Others have interpreted the lyrics as a message of hope in times of darkness.


Line by Line Meaning

If we could see tomorrow
Imagine if we knew what the future held


What of your plans?
What would you do with that knowledge?


No one can live in sorrow
It's impossible to exist in a constant state of sadness


Ask all your friends.
Seek the guidance of those who care about you


Times that you took in stride
The moments you thought were easy


They're back in demand
Those times are now hard to come by and sought-after


I was the one who's washing
I'm the one trying to help you clean up the mess you made


Blood off your hands
I'm trying to help you move on from past mistakes


Don't you cry tonight
Don't be sad right now


I still love you baby
I still care about you


There's a heaven above you baby
There's something better ahead for you


And don't you cry tonight
Stay strong and don't let the sadness consume you


I know the things you wanted
I understand your desires and goals


They're not what you have
Your current situation is not what you imagined


With all the people talking
All the gossip and chatter is getting to you


It's driving you mad
It's making you crazy


If I was standing by you
If I was there to support you


How would you feel?
Would you feel comforted and reassured?


Knowing your loves decided
That your heart is settled on someone or something


And all love is real
Love is a genuine emotion


Yeah baby
An affectionate expression


I thought I could live in your world
I believed we could be together forever


As years all went by
But as time passed


With all the voices I've heard
Despite all the opinions I've received


Something has died
Our relationship has come to an end


And when your in need of someone
When you need someone to turn to


My heart won't deny you
I'll always be here for you


So many seem so lonely
Many people feel alone


With no one left to cry to baby
With no one else to turn to for comfort


Don't you cry tonight
Don't let your sadness consume you


And don't you cry
Stay strong and don't let the sadness consume you


Don't you ever cry
Don't let anything make you feel like giving up


Baby, maybe someday
Perhaps someday in the future we can try again

DON'T CRY

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Somethin's changin' inside you
And don't you know

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper
And give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you
tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had... baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

And don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby

And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry
Toniiight...

Knowing your love's decided
And all love is real, baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
