Im waiting for the day : everyone knows Frank ocean , every station plays his songs on the radio , & when Frank wins a million grammy's and is for once nominated. I can't wait for this day ♥
"You can't miss what you ain't have, well i can. I'm sad." Always makes me burst into tears. This song is beautiful and cathartic - I have to come back to it every once in a while.
JosephTheDreamer stay strong man, it’s alright to to feel grief and pain. It’s part of healing, part of becoming the best version of yourself. If you need to talk hmu
I recently lost my father on the 15 of July, and im 14 atm and it hurts so much because he took care of me and my brothers as a single parent now I dont know what to do. It feels like Ive lost a big part of me, it hurts so much words cant describe. Imagine the person you love the most not even being able to see your kids or watch you develop.
my grandpas had cancer for the last few months and ive been taking care of him. lately hes been doing real bad and half conscious half not. Ive trained myself to lucid dream, and astral project sometimes in my sleep throughout the years. and a few lines in this song really are just perfectly timed for my life
"There Will Be Tears" there will be tears i've no doubt there may be smiles but a few and when those tears have run out you will be numb and blue i can't be there with you but i can dream i can't be there with you but i can dream i can't be there with you but i can dream i can't be there with you but i can dream i can't be there with you but i can dream i can't be there with you but i can dream i still dream dream dream i still dream my grandaddy was a player pretty boy in a pair of gators see i met him later on think it was 1991 the only dad i'd ever know but pretty soon he'd be gone too hide my face hide my face can't let em see me crying cause these boys didn't have no fathers neither and they weren't crying my friend said it wasn't so bad you can't miss what you ain't had well i can i'm sad and there will be tears i've no doubt there may be smiles but a few and when those tears have run out you will be numb and blue i can't be there that's all you had to say to me was you couldn't be there why couldn't you say to me you won't be there you could've warned me you wouldn't be here right here you wouldn't be here for me
i listened to this song over and over again after I had a miscarriage with a baby I didn't know i was carrying and wouldn't have wanted at the time. But still felt pain for.
Listening to this song for the first time in 8 years bought tears to my eyes. One of Frank’s best songs IMO. Not sure how I managed to forget about it for so long, I used to listen to it over and over.
Daniel Kay real boys are not afraid to show human emotions sometimes. Show they are man....not robots. But there’s more men that Cary too much hurt on their back then we can ever imagine. They learned to survive without shutting tears. Instead they turn their hearts into a rock. Which make others judge them to be cold hearted asses
My homie is in a mental hospital after nearly ending his life. We're only in 9th grade. His parents took his phone and he's been in there for about 2 weeks. I listen to this and think how he's doing wishing you luck josh
I loved this song when I first heard it freshman year of HS; in fact, I only listen to it on this video, since it’s the OG. however, until recently, I subconsciously was not able to listen to it anymore. now that I’ve grown up & worked through all the mental muck of my life, I’m realizing that the actual lyrics hit way too close to home. having lost my Lolo, who was a G & the closest I’ve had to a father figure (even moreso than my actual father), I relate to close to this whole song. yet, I choose to listen to it now as a sign of moving on with my life. hope everyone reading this can achieve the same.
amen, i used to hear this song before i was Christian and i felt so sad and bad for my nephews with no dads, but now i can tell them that God is their heavenly father, happy Fathers day
It’s quarantine and I’ve had time to read through the comment section of some of my favorite songs. You guys are amazing! The love & the respect shared here in this comment section is beautiful. Although most of it was like yeeeeears ago. It’s still beautiful. Thank you all for your stories 😭❤️❤️ I don’t know why I never interacted w/ people in the comments section. this is everything
I've always loved this song but i fear in time i might be able to relate to this song more than i would like to. My GF has been having a lot of frequent chest/heart pain recently and i can recall a friend of my mother passing away from a heart attack after similar symptoms. I'm praying she'll be ok :(
There are many nutritional foods and stuff to make help with heart pains and heart attacks . If u want to take time out of your day for her . U look some stuff up ! And also there are things to not eat that cause heart attacks such as meat . Cut out red meat . If it's an option for her
this dude right here and The Weeknd write songs with feeling, emotion, and heart if this song made you think about somebody you love that passed then Frank Ocean did his job :)
One of my favorite songs to cry to. I love this song. i can't be there that's all you had to say to me was you couldn't be there why couldn't you say to me you won't be there you could've warned me you wouldn't be here right here you wouldn't be here for me no, no, no, no, no, no
This song is absolutely the best song ever made. My dad is not really in my life and this song just speaks to me and I am 49 yrs. old. I still would love to have him in my life, and I am sad, I hold that in. This song just is my song...I love it. Please release this song, I have to have this in my life. Thank you Frank Ocean for making a real song, a soul song, a perfect release of emotions.
this gets so fucking rough when i replayed it and realized odd future was probably one of franks closest friends...mainly tyler. chances are he was quoting tyler, since they both don’t have dads. they clearly both took it differently, peep inglorious vs this song. both have their dads as the subjects. fuck this is sad. so GOOD THOUGH
"I can't be there with you, but I can dream." I accidentally found this song 5 years ago I've always loved it. My grandma who I love and miss dearly passed away 4 months ago on St. Patrick's day. I've played this song almost every day since. This happened when I was in a really dark place and I'm still coming out of it. I'm trying my hardest to make her proud.
Becoming a man when you are fatherless is ..... very painful, I wish my dad could have been there... but my grand daddy was a player and my dad was one too
"Think it was 1991 The only dad I ever known pretty soon he'd be gone too". That line hits me hard because it was the same for me RIP Grandpa I will make you proud to carry on your last name.
I cant be there with you but i could dream.....this song makes me remember my fiance that died...almost four years ago i hope our daughter does not feel this way.... how he felt
Was this song released? This is genuinely the only place I can find it and listen and I've loved this song for years.... Every now and again I will remember it randomly and end up back here
I can’t be there.. that’s all you had to say to me was.. you couldn’t be there.. why couldn’t you say it to me ..you won’t be there? YOU COULD’VE WARNED ME
i recently started listening to him and just got channel orange....just really have been enjoying his lyrics and beats...really amazing guy....im so glad i discovered his music!!!!!!!!!!!
Im waiting for the day : everyone knows Frank ocean , every station plays his songs on the radio , & when Frank wins a million grammy's and is for once nominated. I can't wait for this day ♥
You we're right all along.
@cokebeezel that means it aged badly, this aged like wine
the day has come
This happened long ago lolllll
you were right :)
RIP Ryan. This song hits harder and harder in the feels as time passes by
Timothy Dale Mendoza it truly does.
Ryan was taken from us to early
Who's that?
@@MK_savesoul ryan breaux, his little brother
@@paulfranco9673 Oh💔thanks for informing me
I love how the beat is very uptempo but the lyrics are so emotional
Listen to Kanye West 808s & Heartbreak , it's a similar vibe

"You can't miss what you ain't have, well i can. I'm sad." Always makes me burst into tears. This song is beautiful and cathartic - I have to come back to it every once in a while.

Wow I'm so sorry. But I wouldn't lucid dream unless your okay with demons and spirits going into you

Even when you think you have heard everything from this man then you find other song that squash it

the only dad i'd ever know
but pretty soon he'd be gone too
hide my face hide my face
can't let em see me crying
cause these boys didn't have no fathers neither
and they weren't crying
my friend said it wasn't so bad
you can't miss what you ain't had
well i can
i'm sad and there will be tears
i've no doubt
there may be smiles
but a few
and when those tears
have run out
you will be numb

I been listening to Frank Ocean for almost 2 years now, and still it's the only music where my heart finds peace. ♥
Exactly
I envy you who knew about frank for more than 12 years.
Listening to this song for the first time in 8 years bought tears to my eyes. One of Frank’s best songs IMO. Not sure how I managed to forget about it for so long, I used to listen to it over and over.
This song brings me to tears every single time and nothing else can do it..
Who is listening 2019 summer?
eve spotify needs to upload this stat! Can’t believe they still don’t have this!
oh yea
Anousha Dewan they can’t because it’s part of a free mixtape.

BOYS DO CRY
Daniel Kay real boys are not afraid to show human emotions sometimes. Show they are man....not robots.
But there’s more men that Cary too much hurt on their back then we can ever imagine. They learned to survive without shutting tears.
Instead they turn their hearts into a rock.
Which make others judge them to be cold hearted asses
Duh

Hahaha sort of, waaaanker
Boy's don't cry, men do
All these sad comments.
I love all of you..

I've cried so many times to this song ..
God is the father of the fatherless..God bless Ocean.
:)
God? Never heard of her.
+Marlowe Brandt How'd you know?
Well then, the fatherless is being led by a fictional character. Jeez that's insensitive.
amen, i used to hear this song before i was Christian and i felt so sad and bad for my nephews with no dads, but now i can tell them that God is their heavenly father, happy Fathers day
The way Frank Ocean experiments with sound is truly an artistic achievement!!!
dude Frank is literally underrated member of OFWGKTA. he should make more music and be more known
Well it happened
holy fack
Little did you know…he will be very well known for making very little but excellent music here in the future
bro predicted it
Frank Ocean is amazing... So excited that I found him!
i need more of these older songs on spotify ):
RIP Pop. I still hold on to the memories. I forgive you. You couldn't be here. I still dream...

On this track, Ocean sampled Mr. Hudson's There Will Be Tears.
Mr Hudson has such a unique voice. His vocals on Jay-z and Kanye West's song Why I Love You, are god-like. You should go listen man.
this dude right here and The Weeknd write songs with feeling, emotion, and heart if this song made you think about somebody you love that passed then Frank Ocean did his job :)
What I like about Frank's songs is that I can see poetry in his lyrics. His songs are real deep.
My dad died. This finally hits me like he intended. Thanks Frank
This song brings my soul to such a level, it evokes feelings of sadness, happiness, and mixes these emotions to create a beautiful inspiring song.
One of my favorite songs to cry to. I love this song.
i can't be there
that's all you had to say to me was
you couldn't be there
why couldn't you say to me
you won't be there

you wouldn't be here for me
no, no, no, no, no, no
Cant believe this video is still up. First listened to it in 2011…….I was 14 years old. Timeless.

This song is a masterpiece. It touches me on so many levels...
"Hide My Face Hide My face cant let Em see Me Crying"
This was originally Mr. Hudson's song but Frank Ocean added a nice touch to this song.
whats the priginal song?
Gardy Banks It's called There Will Be Tears By Mr. hudson.
Lol pringle song
Anthony Boame sounded like bon iver at first
Love Frank but mr.hudson was the only one who could make this song , any other version isn't remotely close to his or better in my opinion
When Frank Ocean said "my friend said it wasn't so bad, you can't miss what you ain't had well I can..... IM SADDDDDD" I felt that
Here in 2024 ❤️🔥
