Don't look back
Black Raven Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't care
If you never call again
I don't care
If you leave me in my den
And I don't feel
That love for you no more
And I don't need
You 'round me anymore

Don't look back
On your way right through that door
Don't look back
Like you never did before
Just go on
Go on break another heart
Just go on
Find a new love, a new start

But I cry out in the night
When I think of you and I and the times
I spent with making me believe
No one could steal your love away
I never thought that you could be the thief

I don't feel
That sweet love for you no more
And I don't feel
My own heart that you've torn
Leave my world
Leave it broken at my feet
Leave my world
Leave the dreams you don't need

But the saddest part of all
Is never knowing if you ever wonder why
The hearts you left all have to die
Guess you'll never ever know
And you'll never ever love without a lie

No please go on
Cause I know you don't think twice
Please move on
With your heart cold as ice
Don't look back
Though I'm still waiting here




Don't look back
Though you'll ever be my dear

Line by Line Meaning

I don't care
I am indifferent


If you never call again
I am fine with you not contacting me


If you leave me in my den
I am content with being alone


And I don't feel
I lack the emotion


That love for you no more
I am no longer in love with you


And I don't need
I have no requirement for


You 'round me anymore
I do not want to have you around me


Don't look back
Do not revisit the past


On your way right through that door
As you walk away from me


Like you never did before
As though it is a new experience


Just go on
Move forward


Go on break another heart
Hurt someone else


Find a new love, a new start
Discover a new romance


But I cry out in the night
I weep when alone


When I think of you and I and the times
Reflecting on our relationship


I spent with making me believe
I invested time convincing myself


No one could steal your love away
That our love was secure


I never thought that you could be the thief
I did not expect you to betray me


Leave my world
Depart from my life


Leave it broken at my feet
And leave me with the wreckage


Leave the dreams you don't need
And abandon the aspirations you do not want


But the saddest part of all
The most disheartening thing


Is never knowing if you ever wonder why
Is not being aware if you question the circumstances


The hearts you left all have to die
The sorrow experienced by those you abandoned


Guess you'll never ever know
I doubt you will ever find out


And you'll never ever love without a lie
And you will not be able to love honestly


No please go on
You must continue


Cause I know you don't think twice
Because you do not consider the consequences of your actions


Please move on
Find someone else


With your heart cold as ice
As you are emotionally detached


Though I'm still waiting here
Although I continue to wait for you


Though you'll ever be my dear
And you will always have a place in my heart
