Don't Worry
Adam Faith Cliff Richard & Billy Fury Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You don't know my love is real
If I tell you, you might say
That I should not feel this way
Maybe you don't care
Baby, that's what I fear
You don't worry like I do
You don't know my love is true
Just how much I really feel
Maybe you don't care
Baby, that's what I fear
You don't know the way I feel
You don't know my love is real You
Don't know the joy you bring
You make my poor heart sing
You don't know, you don't know
Oh oh, you don't know
In "Don't Worry," Adam Faith, Cliff Richard, and Billy Fury express the frustrations and fears of being in love with someone who may not reciprocate those feelings.

They emphasize the disparity between their own intense emotions and the apparent indifference of the recipient.
The lyrics suggest that the singer's love is genuine and deep, which is not fully comprehended or acknowledged by the person they are in love with. They express their apprehension that revealing the extent of their feelings might be met with indifference or rejection. This fear is rooted in the possibility that the recipient simply does not care about the singer's emotions, which adds to their distress and uncertainty.
Overall, "Don't Worry" portrays the inner turmoil and emotional rollercoaster of unrequited love. It captures the anguish of loving someone who may not fully understand or reciprocate those feelings, highlighting the complexities of human relationships and the vulnerability that comes with exposing our true emotions.

I had never seen this interview before I guess I was living down under and still am to me been brought up in the UK
and what a great guy he really was after what he as gone through and can sit there so humble and grateful
and to care about the wild life that I did not know about and I guess a lot people didn’t
to me he was the most underrated singer of the early 60 ‘s not given the recognition he deserved
and more so when the Beatles hit but he did have one thing oven them he had more top 40 hits
than the Beatles as he help put Liverpool on the map in Britain anyway
a great singer and writer as I believe he Wrote a lot of his own songs ??
we lost a great guy and singer RIP but never forgotten
Reg Symes
