CỨ ĐỂ ANH Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
In this verse, the singer is urging the girl to stop following or being led by someone who doesn’t care about her and only causes her pain. He’s puzzled about why she’s still holding on to this person, even though it’s clear she’s hurt. The singer refers to her tears and aimless wandering, wondering why she keeps hoping when she’s already endured so much. He uses a playful reference to “Tây Du Ký” (Journey to the West) to emphasize that life isn’t a fantasy, and she shouldn’t expect miracles. Her suffering, in his eyes, seems unnecessary.

[Chorus]
In the chorus, the singer warns the girl not to let her tears completely dry out before realizing how limitless her pain is. He sees her as naïve, stubbornly chasing after heartbreak instead of moving on. He believes that clinging to memories only leads to more loneliness. He offers himself as someone who could comfort her, staying by her side all night, but acknowledges that he’s not the person she longs for. Despite this, since the other person won’t return, he asks her to let him be the one to take their place, even if just for once.

[Verse 2]
In this verse, the singer expresses his frustration and sadness. He’s told her before not to hold onto unrealistic dreams, and if she still misses someone, she should keep it to herself. By now, it’s too late because she’s already fallen too quickly and deeply for someone else. He admits that his own feelings are simple and not driven by grand illusions, but he values her even though she doesn’t need him. To her, his love is like air—necessary, yet unnoticed, especially when she’s with someone else. He feels invisible around her and knows that she only turns to him when she’s unhappy. Yet, when she’s with someone else, she acts as if he doesn’t exist, and this pains him deeply.

[Chorus]
The chorus reflects the singer’s repeated plea for the girl to stop letting herself cry to the point where she’s drained. He believes that her stubbornness in pursuing pain is only causing her more suffering. Memories, instead of bringing comfort, are isolating her further. He offers himself as someone who can be there for her in her time of need, even if he’s not the person she truly wants. Since the person she longs for isn’t coming back, he asks her to let him take their place, even just temporarily.
