No Other Love
Bing Crosby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(No Other Love)
No other love have I,
Only my love for you!
Only the dream we knew,
No other love!

Watching the night go by,
Wishing that you could be,
Watching the night with me,
Into the night I cry!

Hurry home,
Come home to me!
Set me free,
Free from doubt,
And free from longing!

Into your arms I'll fly,
Locked in your arms I'll stay,
Waiting to hear you say,
No other love have I,
No other love!

(Into the night I cry!)

Hurry home,
Come home to me!
Set me free,
Free from doubt,
And free from longing!

Into your arms I'll fly,
Locked in your arms I'll stay,
Waiting to hear you say,
No other love have I!




No other love! ( No other love!)
No other love!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bing Crosby's song "No Other Love" speak of an unwavering love for a person, and a sense of desperation and longing for their presence. The first stanza of the song states, "No other love have I, Only my love for you! Only the dream we knew, No other love!" This meaning seems straightforward, reiterating the idea that there is no other love than that which the singer has for their partner. They share a unique bond, a dream that only they know and understand.


The second stanza speaks to the loneliness and longing that the singer feels when they are not with their partner. "Watching the night go by, Wishing that you could be, Watching the night with me, Into the night I cry!" The singer is alone, wishing and longing for their partner's presence. This feeling of desperation for their lover's return is repeated throughout the song, with lines like "Hurry home, Come home to me! Set me free, Free from doubt, And free from longing!" The singer is filled with doubt and insecurities without their partner, and only through their love can they feel free.


The chorus of the song speaks of the singer's desire to be held by their partner, and the security they feel when they are in their arms. "Into your arms, I'll fly, Locked in your arms, I'll stay, Waiting to hear you say, No other love have I, No other love!" The singer is content in the knowledge that they share an unbreakable bond with their partner and that no other love could compare to what they have.


Overall, "No Other Love" is a song that speaks to the essence of true love and the longing that comes with it. It conveys the idea that true love provides a sense of security and comfort that cannot be found elsewhere, and that without it, one can feel lost and alone.
