Words
Boyzone(男孩地带) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Smile an ever lasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you gone
'Cause that would bring a tear to me

This world has lost its glory
Let's start a brand new story
Now my love
You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say

It's only words
And words are all I have

To take your heart away

Talk in ever lasting words
And dedicate them all to me
And I will give you all my life
I'm here if you should call to me

You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da da

This world has lost its glory
Let's start a brand new story
Now my love
You think that I don't even mean

A single word I say

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

It's only words




And words are all I have
To take your heart away

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Boyzone's song Words speak about the power of communication and the importance of expressing love and emotions through words. The opening couple of lines, "Smile an ever-lasting smile, a smile can bring you near to me," convey the message that even a small gesture like smiling can bring two people closer together. The following lines stress on the importance of staying together and not letting go. The singer requests his beloved never to leave him because the mere thought of being separated from her would bring tears to his eyes.


The song then goes on to paint a picture of how this world has lost its glory and how the singer wants to start a brand new story with his love. The lyrics emphasize that it's not just about expressing love, but also meaning what one says. There is a sense of desperation in the singer's voice, urging his partner to believe him when he says he means every word he says. The recurring phrase "It's only words" suggests that the power of expression should not be underestimated. Words have the power to heal, nurture, and bring two people together.


Overall, the song Words is about the power of words and communication in a relationship. It highlights the importance of expressing one's emotions and the significance of having faith in the power of words.

A smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you down
'Cause that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost its glory
Let's start a brand new story now, my love
Right now, there'll be no other time
