Morrissey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My love, wherever you are
Whatever you are
Don't lose faith
I know it's gonna happen someday
To you

Please wait
Please wait
Oh
Wait
Don't lose faith

You say that the day just never arrives
And it's never seemed so far away
Still, I know it's gonna happen someday
To you

Please wait
Don't lose faith

The lyrics are an exhortation to a lover to never lose hope and to keep belief that their long-awaited dreams will someday come to fruition.

I'm 56, and I know it's never going to happen. I've begun to love myself for the first time in my life. I may be alone for the rest of my life, but I am not lonely.
It seems I'm not alone in being alone.
A hundred million castaways, looking for a home.
I know I'm a good man deserving of love, but love is more about luck than anything else.
For those who are lucky, know how lucky you are.
For the rest of us, know how beautiful you are.

Men have three great loves in their life. They have their first love, their greatest love, and their last love. How lucky are you to have all three at the same time.

This song is much more than finding a person to love. People put too much emphasis on this being a love song. People put too much emphasis on other people making them happy. This song has meaning in all other aspects of life. Anything you are searching for. Inner peace, a new job, a better mindset etc etc.

How do u know so much? JK (Kind of), most songwriters agree listeners make what they want ( need ) out of a composition

@edenbrough5101

Except that Stephen Patrick has always been far more of an old-fashioned (with all the baggage) romantic, rather than some new age Kalifornian life coach.

This is an amazing record, it must be heard on very expensive amplifiers preamps KEF speakers, I've just read what you put down, and you're totally right the record has a lot of meanings to different people, I must say a great respect for Mick ronson who Morrissey helps out for working on his albums as you know Dave Bowie s*** all over the spiders from Mars rip them off when Mick ronson was dying with cancer Dave Bowie didn't help him out Morrissey helps him out Morrissey paid for his treatment and paid him very handsome Lee for the work he done on his albums rest in peace Mick ronson, 🌹🌹🌹
