Cry To Me
Marc Broussard Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When your baby leaves you all alone
And nobody calls you on the phone
Doncha feel like crying
Doncha feel like crying
Well, here I am, my honey c'mon , cry to me

When you're all alone in your lonely room
And there's nothing but the smell of her perfume
Doncha feel like crying
Doncha feel like crying
Doncha feel like crying
C'mon baby, (c'mon) cry to me

Nothing could be sadder than a glass of wine alone
Loneliness loneliness, it just a waste of your time, oh yeah
But you don't ever you don't ever have to walk alone
You see, Come take my hand, and baby, won't you walk with me? whoa yeah

When you're waiting for a voice to come
In the night there is no one
Doncha feel like crying (cry to me)
Doncha feel like crying (cry to me)




Don't you feel like cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cry (cry to me) cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-crying? (cry to me)
Don't you feel like cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cry (cry to me) cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-crying?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Cry To Me" by Marc Broussard speaks about how the singer is always there for someone who is alone and needs someone to cry on, especially when their loved ones have left them. The first two lines convey the feeling of loneliness, when one is left alone and nobody cares about them. The chorus "Doncha feel like crying Doncha feel like crying Well, here I am, my honey c'mon, cry to me" indicates that the singer is willing to be a shoulder to cry on for someone who is feeling low and needs emotional support.


In the second verse, Marc Broussard speaks about being lonely when there is nothing but the smell of the perfume of a loved one who has left. The repetition of the chorus "Doncha feel like crying Doncha feel like crying Doncha feel like crying C'mon baby, (c'mon) cry to me" indicates that the singer suggests crying as a way to deal with the feeling of loneliness. The following lines express the futility of being alone and how it is a waste of time.


The final lines of the song suggest that no one has to walk alone, and the singer acts as a support system for anyone in need of a company. The bridge "When you're waiting for a voice to come In the night there is no one Doncha feel like crying (cry to me) Doncha feel like crying (cry to me) Don't you feel like cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cry (cry to me) cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-crying? (cry to me) Don't you feel like cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cry (cry to me) cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-cr-crying?" convey the desperation felt by someone who is waiting for someone to talk to in the middle of the night and how the singer is willing to lend an ear.
