All By Myself
席琳迪昂Celine Dion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I was young
I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun
Those days are gone
Livin' alone
I think of all the friends I've known
But when I dial the telephone
Nobody's home

All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore

Hard to be sure
Sometimes I feel so insecure
And love so distant and obscure
Remains the cure

All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore

All by myself
Don't wanna live
All by myself
Anymore

When I was young
I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun
Those days are gone

All by myself
Don't wanna be
All by myself
Anymore

All by myself
Don't wanna live
Oh
Don't wanna live
By myself, by myself
Anymore
By myself
Anymore
Oh
All by myself
Don't wanna live




I never, never, never
Needed anyone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Celine Dion's song All By Myself revolve around loneliness, unfulfilled desires, and the difficulties of being alone. The song's narrator reflects on her younger years when she never needed anyone and made love just for fun. However, she realizes that those days are gone, and now she's living alone, remembering all the friends she's had, but nobody's home when she tries to call. She sings about her feelings of insecurity, the distance of love, and the need for a cure, which seems to be love.


The chorus repeats the phrase "All by myself" with the added line of "don't want to be" and "don't want to live" before concluding with a plea to not live by herself anymore. This repetition emphasizes the singer's feelings of isolation and the desire to no longer be alone. The song ends with a final affirmation of never needing anyone.


Overall, the lyrics to All By Myself convey a sense of loneliness and the struggle to find happiness and fulfillment outside of a romantic relationship. It speaks to the universal experience of feeling alone, despite having friends and family, and the deep-seated need for love and companionship.


Line by Line Meaning

When I was young
In my younger days


I never needed anyone
At that time I was independent and did not rely on anyone for support or companionship


And making love was just for fun
Engaging in sexual activity wasn't seen as something serious or meaningful, but just a source of amusement


Those days are gone
That era of my life has ended


Livin' alone
Currently, I am living without a partner or family


I think of all the friends I've known
Recalling all the companions I’ve had during my life


But when I dial the telephone
But when I contact them through a call


Nobody's home
No one answers, and I am left alone with my thoughts


All by myself
Alone without anyone's company


Don't wanna be
I do not want to continue living my life in solitude


Anymore
Being alone is no longer something I desire


Hard to be sure
It's difficult to have complete confidence and belief in oneself at times

Finding someone to love is difficult and opaque


Remains the cure
However, love is the solution to the loneliness and uncertainty that I feel


Don't wanna live
I do not want to exist


Oh
An interjection expressing surprise or regret


I never, never, never
