Toby Keith - Cryin' For Me (Wayman's Song) Lyrics






Got the news on Friday morning
But a tear I couldn't find
You showed me how I am supposed to live
Now you showed me how to die
I was lost til Sunday morning
I woke up to face my fear
While writing you this good bye song I found a tear

I'm going to miss that smile
I'm going to miss you my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up
Id do it all again

So play it sweet in heaven
Cause that's right where you want to be
I'm not cryin' cause I feel so sorry for you
I am cryin' for me

I got up and dialed your number
Your voice came on the line
That old familiar message
I have heard a thousand times
It just said, sorry that I missed you
Leave a message and god bless
I know that you think I am crazy
But I just had to hear your voice I guess

I'm going to miss that smile
I'm going to miss you my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up
Id do it all again

So play it sweet in heaven
Cause that's right where you want to be
I'm not cryin' cause I feel so sorry for you
I am cryin' for me

Oh

So play your upsidedown, left handed
Backward bass guitar
I'll see you on the other side superstar

I'm going to miss that smile
I'm going to miss you my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up
I'd do it all again

So play it sweet in heaven
Cause that's right where you want to be
I'm not cryin' cause I feel so sorry for you
I am cryin' for me

I'm still cryin'
I'm cryin' for me
Oh
I'm still cryin'

    Today I lost my Dad 10 yrs ago. I played this song at his service. My uncle said he knew I chose it. I miss you Dad

    This was his temporary home. Another song I played for him.

  15. i.... t....

    This is exactly how I felt when I lost my buddy Vern Page! One of the greatest Steele players I ever met or played for!

  16. C.... S....

    Almost 10 years later and it still hits me hard. This song came out 9 months before my grandpa died who I followed into the fire service

  17. M.... C....

    This song is so special to me that's how I felt when I lost my best friend 19 half yrs ago

  18. X.... ....

    November 8th, 2019 at 3:00 A.M. I lost my best friend. Known him since I was 5. He will forever be my best friend. He will Always be loved. If I had the chance to stop him I would. I just wish I could have said goodbye. February 4th, 2019 9:36 p.m. someone who I went to school with. Someone who I was to chicken to ask her out, took her life. She was always so happy. She died 2 days after I turned 17. June 30th 2018 I lost my grandmother. She was there for me through the most painful times I ever had. If it wasn't for her I wouldn't be who I am today. She gave me the Jeep I have now. When I went to court, she said the badman is gone. And handed me the keys to my 1994 Jeep Cherokee. If I could bring her back I would. I have made alot of mistakes in my life and all three have forgiven me for it. Y'all stay safe in heaven. I love all of y'all. 🙏 Goodnight.

  19. O.... S....

    This is the last song I listened to when I got the news about my friend, who tragically died in a car accident, I still think about him and how much he affected many peoples life in good ways
    If I could see him smile again, I would do anything,
    Miss you kylin, I remember not even knowing what was to come of either of us after middle school, years later and you are still gone but forever in my heart

  20. c.... u....

    Can't thank you enough

  21. c.... u....

    A great song, helps me with the loss of many,too many people I loved and lost!!!!! Thank you, Toby Kieth.

  22. K.... W....

    We should all have a friend like this. I know I certainly did. Miss you Matt and Big Nanny you are both always in my heart.

    K.... W....

    Just recently lost my best friend. This song explains it all.

  23. R.... ....

    “I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge.
    That myth is more potent than history.
    That dreams are more powerful than facts.
    That hope always triumphs over experience.
    That laughter is the only cure for grief.
    And I believe that love is stronger than death."
    Robert Fulghum
    .
    Will

  24. R.... B....

    Absolutely beautiful, heartfelt song! Thank you.

  25. S.... y....

    My son was such a big fan of Toby. He looked a lot like Toby, and one time when Toby was playing at the Iowa State Fair a bunch of girls started following my son, thinking he was the star. I lost my son to suicide in 2016, this song really touches my heart.

  26. J.... P....

    I lost my stepdad to cancer this morning. RIP gene. Love you. Cancer is a big ugly monster.

  27. L.... H....

    My grandfather just pasted away and I cant stop crying

  28. A.... P....

    "You showed me how I'm supposed to live
    And now you showed me how to die
    I'm gonna miss that smile
    I'm gonna miss you my friend
    Even though it hurts the way it ended up
    I'd do it all again
    So play it sweet in heaven
    'Cause That's right where you want to be
    I'm not cryin' cause I feel so sorry for you
    I'm cryin' for me
    I got up and dialed your number
    And your voice came on the line
    With that old familiar message
    I'd heard a thousand times it just said
    Sorry that I missed you
    Leave a message and god bless
    I know you think I'm crazy
    But I had to hear your voice again"


    I miss you mom, its been about nearly 3 months since I lost you. I miss you so much. You were too young to die, and I am to young to experience this. I haven't even graduated high school yet.

    A beautiful expression of his pain when writing this. This wasn’t written to be a chart topping hit. This was written as a tribute to his friend and a way to say goodbye. This song has more impact than most songs. We’ve all lost friends to unfair circumstances. This song helped me process the death of a man whom I worked with and respected. RIP Corrections Officer Tyra. I’ve never forgot the lessons you taught me.

  89. j.... ....

    So today I lost my best friend Of 30 years😢 it's so hard!

  90. l.... m....

    2016 when I saw u I knew I was meant for uuuuuuuuu........now it's dead and the love has only grown and I gave it all up to God....love isn't supposed to beat u down

  91. N.... J....

    Fine line between a man's pride & his image of a man.Country music is known for predominately white people's music.And that's ok.U see real country is about God ,family ,friends & love.(a broken heart)
    That fine line I'm talking about,Take this beautiful song 4 example . It was written for another man.A country okie white boy talking about missing a black man who's died.U see any man brave enough to sing about his love 4 another no matter what color,Has 2 be one hell of a man to sing to the world takes alot of courage I would say.wouldnt u ? Damn Toby Keith is a hell of a man!! I'm proud 2 have admired him all these years.To not know him personally I have to say I feel I'm pretty accurate w/ knowing hes really what everybody??? ONE HELL OF A COWBOY!!! Thankyou TK

  92. K.... L....

    This song came out a few days after my uncle passed away and it helped me so much. My grandmother passed away this morning and this song has been on repeat for an hour 😢 i love my Gramma my uncle and i appreciate this song more than i can explain

  93. E.... S....

    This song hits me really hard I lost the 3 most important ppl in my lives on the dates that meant the most important dates to me in lost my papa a week after i got married my grandma past away the same day as my oldest daughter was born and my grandpa past away on my first Father's Day

  97. k.... r....

    One year since my bestfriend past away and the pain is still the same from the day it happened this song has definitely said the words I couldn't find absolutely beautiful
