My Love
Bles Bridges Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
here I stand with a broken heart
My love,
it was you from the very start.
My love,
think of me when you're far away
My love,
in my heart you will always stay.
I hide,
far away from the sunlight
I spend, all of my long nights,
in dreams of you.
My love,
here I stand in the pouring rain
My love,
in my life there is only pain.
I hide,
far away from the sunlight
I spend, all of my long nights,
in dreams of you.
Can't you hear me call your name
I want you to come home again
You're my love
You're my love
My love
Mmm,
here I stand in the pouring rain
Mmm,
in my life there is only pain.
My love,
think of me when you're far away
My love,
in my heart you will always stay.
I hide,
far away from the sunlight
I spend, all of my long nights,
in dreams of you.
My Love
Bles Bridges's song "My Love" is a heart-wrenching ballad about lost love and the pain that comes with it. In the first two lines, the singer declares that they are standing with a broken heart, suggesting that they have just experienced a heartbreak. They then acknowledge that their love for their significant other was present from the beginning of the relationship, and despite the hurt, their love remains unwavering.
Throughout the song, the singer expresses their longing for their lover, who left them. They spend their days and nights lost in thoughts and dreams of their love, unable to escape the reality of their loneliness. The chorus is a plea for their lover to come back to them, and the second verse reiterates the pain and suffering brought about by losing someone they loved deeply.
The song's message is one of despair and heartache, with the lyrics painting a vivid picture of the agony of failed relationships. The music provides a suitable backdrop for the melancholy lyrics, with the soft melody and slow tempo adding to the poignant and sorrowful tone of the song.
