Heartbreaker
Balaam And The Angel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Not long ago we saw each other
For the first time at a show of a friend
We talked for hours in a round
We were glad that we've been found

And the sparkle in your eyes
Tells me (for) sure you don't know why
You left me alone





You're my

Overall Meaning

Heartbreaker by Balaam And The Angel is a song about longing for someone who is no longer a part of one’s life. The lyrics describe a chance meeting between two people who were once close friends but had drifted apart. The singer recounts the time they spent together at a friend’s show, talking for hours and connecting once again. The “sparkle in your eyes” indicates that the other person also feels a sense of nostalgia and regret for what was lost between them. However, despite the rekindled connection, the singer still feels abandoned and heartbroken by the other person, who seems unaware of the impact they had on their life.


The song captures the pain of unrequited love and the lingering emotions that we carry with us long after a relationship has ended. It speaks to the universal experience of loss and the desire for closure, even when we know deep down that we may never get it. Despite its melancholic theme, Heartbreaker is also a celebration of the beauty of human connection and the hope that comes with the possibility of new beginnings.

For the first time at a show of a friend
Our initial encounter took place at a mutual friend's event


We talked for hours in a round
We engaged in extensive conversation, speaking at length


We were glad that we've been found

You're my
