Cryin'
R.O.M.E. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling Oooh
That it won't be long before it's crying time

Now they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder (fonder)
And that tears are only rain to make love grow
Well my love for you could never grow no stronger (stronger)
If I lived to be a hundred years old

Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling. Yeah now
That it won't be long before it's crying time

Now you say you've found someone that you love better (better)
That's the way it's happened every time before
And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow ('morrow)
Crying time will start when you walk out the door

Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling. Alright now




That it won't be long before it's crying time
That it won't be long before it's crying time

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to R.O.M.E.'s song Cryin' express the pain and heartache of a relationship on the brink of ending. The singer is aware that their partner is going to leave, able to see it in the distant look in their eyes and the way they are holding onto each other.

However, the truth is that every time before, their partner has left for someone else, and there's no doubt the same thing will happen again. The chorus repeats the ominous phrase "it's crying time again" as the singer faces the recurring cycle of heartbreak.

Line by Line Meaning

Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I sense that you're going to leave me soon, which means it's time for me to cry once again


I can see that far away look in your eyes
Your distant gaze indicates that you have already mentally left me


I can tell by the way you hold me darling Oooh
Even in your embrace, I can tell that your heart is no longer with me


That it won't be long before it's crying time
I know that soon enough, I will be shedding tears over losing you


Now they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder (fonder)
While they say that distance makes the heart grow fonder, I fear that it will only make us grow further apart


And that tears are only rain to make love grow
Some claim that tears can nourish a relationship, but I believe that constant crying will only drive us further away


Well my love for you could never grow no stronger (stronger)
My love for you is already at its strongest, and nothing can make it grow any more intense


If I lived to be a hundred years old
Even if I had a hundred years to love you, my feelings could never reach a greater depth


Now you say you've found someone that you love better (better)
You claim to have found someone better than me, just like every time before


That's the way it's happened every time before
This is not the first time you have left me for someone else


And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow ('morrow)
Just like how the sun will rise tomorrow, I know that crying time will come again once you leave


Crying time will start when you walk out the door
Once you leave, the pain and sadness will come flooding in, and I will be crying once again


That it won't be long before it's crying time
I know that my tears are inevitable, and it won't be long before I'm crying over losing you
