Lee Brice delivered his first new release of 2025, “Cry,” on Friday (January 31).
Brice wrote the heartfelt single with songwriters Dallas Davidson, Ben Hayslip and David Garcia. Brice attempts to help a broken-up couple rekindle their romance in the Chase Lauer-directed music video for the “confessional-style track.” A previously-issued press release announcing Brice’s new single as a ballad that “follows a retro groove reminiscent of the great 1950s crooners and confesses that heartbreak can break a man too.”
“'Cause baby, baby, baby, baby/ All I see when I close my eyes/ Is taillights fading away in the Georgia sky/ I’ve been cryin' in my beer, cryin' in my bed/ Cryin' on the pillow where you used to lay your head/ I’ma cry myself to sleep tonight/ Who says a man don't cry?”
“Cry” joins a growing list of career-spanning hits by the South Carolina-born singer-songwriter, including “Drinkin’ Buddies” with Nate Smith and Hailey Whitters, One Of The Girls,” “Memory I Don’t Mess With,” “I Hope You’re Happy Now” with Carly Pearce, “Rumor,” “Hard To Love,” “Love Like Crazy,” “I Drive Your Truck,” “Parking Lot Party,” “I Don’t Dance,” and much more. Brice debuted his first song of 2025 just after kicking off his “You, Me & My Guitar” shows, which will run through late March.
