Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't ever let me find you're gone cause that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost its glory let's start a brand new story now my love
Right now there'll be no other time and I can show you all my love
Talk an everlasting words and dedicate them all to me
And I will give you all my love I'm here if you should call to me
You think that I don't even mean a single word I say
You think that I don't even mean a single word I say
It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
The lyrics of this song convey a deep longing for connection and love. The singer pleads for their loved one to smile so that they can be near to them and not to leave them, as it would bring tears to their eyes. The world has lost its glory, and the singer wants to start a new story with their love. The urgency of the moment is emphasized by the line "right now there'll be no other time," suggesting that the singer is afraid of losing this opportunity for love. They ask for words of dedication and promise to give all their love in return.
However, there is a sense of desperation and insecurity underlying these passionate declarations of love. The repeated line "you think that I don't even mean a single word I say" suggests that the singer feels doubted or not understood by their loved one. The phrase "it's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away" is particularly poignant, implying that the singer feels their words are not enough to fully capture their love and convince their partner of their sincerity. The vulnerability and raw emotion in these lyrics make for a powerful portrayal of the complexities of love and communication.
