Something To Cry To
Ingram Hill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You stepped off my porch
And shuffled right through those leaves
Well, I can't say for sure
But you've given me back that rain
And you always said, you like the sad ones best
I know it ain't much but it's the best I can do

It's just something to cry to
It's something to cry to when I'm gone
Just something to cry to
It's something to cry to when you're wrong
'Cause baby, I'm gone

Well, you spin the dial
But there's nothing that you wanna hear
Well, we can talk for miles
But we've driven down off those years
And you always said, you like the sad ones best
I know it ain't much but it's the best I can do

It's just something to cry to
It's something to cry to when I'm gone
Just something to cry to
It's something to cry to when you're wrong
'Cause baby, I'm gone

Underneath the way maybe, I'm wrong
Don't look back these days, hey

And you always said, you like the sad ones best
I know it ain't much but it's the best that I can do

It's just something to cry to
It's something to cry to when I'm gone
Just something to cry to
It's something to cry to when you're wrong

Just something to cry to
It's something to cry to when I'm gone
Just something to cry to
It's something to cry to when you're wrong




'Cause baby, I'm gone, baby, I'm gone
'Cause baby, I'm gone, baby, I'm gone

You stepped off my porch
You left my life and moved on


And shuffled right through those leaves
You walked away without looking back


Well, I can't say for sure
I don't know if you really made a difference in my life


But you've given me back that rain
Your absence has made my life sad and gloomy again


And you always said, you like the sad ones best
You have a tendency to enjoy sorrowful situations


I know it ain't much but it's the best I can do
I don't have much to offer you, but this sad song is my best attempt

'Cause baby, I'm gone
I have departed from your life


Well, you spin the dial
You search for something to listen to


But there's nothing that you wanna hear
You can't find anything that satisfies your emotions


Well, we can talk for miles
We can communicate for a long time


But we've driven down off those years
Our relationship has deteriorated over time


Underneath the way maybe, I'm wrong
Maybe I contributed to the downfall of our relationship


Don't look back these days, hey
We should focus on the present and not dwell on the past

'Cause baby, I'm gone, baby, I'm gone
I have left your life for good
