Without Love
Bon Jovi/Musicfire.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was innocence in her painted smile
She called to me as I passed her by
Lady of the night looked in my eye
She said I been through some changes
But one thing always stays the same
Without love there's nothing without love
Nothing else feels right without love
Oh oh
I saw a man down a lonely street
A broken man who looked like me
And no one knows
The pain that he's been livin'
He lost his love and still hasn't forgiven
He said I been through some changes
But one thing always stays the same
Without love, there's nothing without love
And nothing else can get you through the night
Nothing else feels right without love
There's nothing without love
Nothing else but love can burn as bright
And nothing would mean nothing without love
Oh oh
I see my life
Some things I took for granted
Love's passed me by
So many second chances
I was afraid
I won't be afraid no more
Without love, there's nothing without love
Nothing else can get you through the night
Nothing else feels right without love
There's nothing without love
Nothing else but love can burn as bright
'Cause nothing would mean nothing without love
There's nothing without love
And nothing without love
Nothing without love
The song "Without Love" by Bon Jovi/Musicfire.in is an emotional ballad about the importance of love in life. The lyrics describe encounters with two different individuals – a lady of the night and a broken man – who have both been through some changes in life but admit that without love there is nothing. The lady of the night wears a painted smile that betrays her innocence despite her age, and calls out to the singer as he passes by. The broken man looks like the singer and is suffering from the pain of a lost love that he has not yet forgiven.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the central theme that without love there is nothing else that can get you through the night or feel right. The singer reflects on his own life and how he took love for granted and let opportunities for it pass him by. However, he also shows resolve to no longer be afraid and to appreciate the importance of love in his life going forward. Overall, the song is a poignant reminder to cherish love in all its forms and to not take it for granted.

30 yrs ago, I walked in to the local Pizza Hut to apply for a job. There was this cute little blonde waitress there, who got the application for me. Found out later that she told the other waitress, " what I could with that for 24 hrs." This album came out shortly after we got together, and this song became ours. 30yrs later and we're still together and she's still my love of a lifetime. Good times, bad times, hard times and easy times, we've been there for each other. There's no one else I could ever see myself with.
Edit: This past December, on our 30th anniversary ( 33 yrs together) date, we renewed our vows. Surrounded by friends made over the years, and our kids and their significant others as bridesmaids and groomsmen. Here's to 30 more with a Love of a Lifetime.
