Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But the heartache lives on inside
And who's the one you're clinging to
Instead of me tonight?
And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow wherever you go(GO)
Cry me a river that leads to your ocean
In the words of a broken heart
It's just emotion taken me over
Caught up in sorrow, lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
Don't you know there's nobody left in this world
To hold me tight
Don't you know there's nobody left in this world kiss goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight,goodnight
I'm there at your side,
I'm part of all the things you are
But you've got a part of someone else
You've gotta go find your shining star
And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow wherever you are
Cry me a river that leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart
It's just emotion taken me over
Caught up in sorrow, lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
Don't you know there's nobody left in this world
To hold me tight
Nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight
And where are you now, now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow wherever you go
I'll cry me a river that leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart
It's just emotion taken me over
Caught up in sorrow, lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
Nobody left in this world
To hold me tight
Nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight
Nobody to kiss me
Goodnight, goodnight
The song "Emotion" by Destiny's Child explores the emotions and heartache that come with a breakup. The lyrics express a sense of loss and desperation as the singer questions who their former partner is with now and why they can't seem to move on. The line "It's just emotion taken me over" refers to the overwhelming pain and sadness that can consume a person after a breakup. The verses also mention tears and crying, which further emphasize the intense emotions that the singer is feeling.
The chorus repeats the idea that there is nobody left in the world to hold the singer tight or kiss them goodnight. This serves as a reminder of just how alone and isolated they feel without their former partner. The second verse acknowledges that the singer is still connected to their ex in some way, by being a part of the things they are and having a part of someone else. However, they ultimately come to the realization that their ex needs to go find their own path and shine in their own way.
Overall, the song captures the raw and vulnerable emotions that come with heartbreak. It highlights the pain and sense of loss that can be felt even after a relationship has ended.

Tears on my pillow
Wherever you go, go
