about
Cry
Wonder 45 are a band with a classic, but modern take on soul music.
“Cry” is a gritty, soul ballad about putting all into a relationship, getting your heart broken but not being defeated and coming back stronger than ever. This is the 2nd single released from Wonder 45 in the run up to their 2024 album “Wonderland”.
The title track “Wonderland”, released last year, has garnered almost 300,000 streams and has won praise from all over the world.
This next tune “Cry” was recorded in an analogue studio to preserve the all-important warmth that is so needed for a track full of soul and emotion.
Let roaring horns, driving organ, crunchy drums and incredibly unapologetic vocals take you to emotional highs and lows in this future soul classic.
lyrics
You were the one, the one I cherished, never thought I’d be alone
Nobody else, could have seen it I turned my head and were gone
Time and again, I carried on, with and ache in my head, but you, oh with a smile on your
face you play it cool, what can I do?
But I,
I got nothing left to cry, baby
I got nothing else inside no no
Tale your time and carry on, don’t come back cos I’ll be gone, nothing
I got nothing left to cry no no
Wandering man, understand that I loved you, every word and every breath, you were the life
and the soul and the meaning and the tears that I shed
Bitter and sweet, broken and blue oh with an ache in my heart but you, wipe off that smile on
your face who you smiling to, tell me the truth
But I, I got nothing left to cry baby
I got nothing else inside no no
Take your time and carry on, don’t come back cos I’ll be gone, nothing
I got nothing left to cry no no
Cry cry cry
Taking it back from you
Cry cry cry
There’s nothing left of you
Cry cry cry
Over and over and ooh oh
What can I do?
I got nothing left to cry baby
I got nothing else inside no no
Take your time and carry on, don’t come back cos I’ll be gone, nothing
I got nothing left to cry no no
