Love
Delerium feat. Zoë Johnston Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can't see my eyes
They don't see yours
Hear me when I say
They don't mind at all
It's the rain that I hear coming
Not a stranger or a ghost
That I fear the most
Its the pain that I hear coming
The slightest crystal tear
Drops to the ground in silence
When my love is near
Darling, when did you fall?
When was it over?
Darling, when
When did you fall?
When was it over?
It's marching through my door now
The stoney cold of lonesome
A bell tolls for my heart
And now my lonesome song begins
It's marching through my door now
The stoney cold of lonesome
A bell tolls for my heart
And now my lonesome song begins
Darling, when did you call?
I couldn't hear you.
Darling, when
When did you cry?
I couldn't hear you.
I suppose it is the price of falling in love
I suppose it is the price of falling in love
Its the rain that I hear coming
Not a stranger or a ghost
But the quiet of the storm approaching
That I fear the most
Its the pain that I hear coming
The slightest crystal tear
Drops to the ground in silence
When my love is near
It's marching through my door now
The stoney cold of lonesome
A bell tolls for my heart
And now my lonesome song will end
Darling, when did we fall?
When was it over?
Darling, when..
When did we fall?
When was it over?
I suppose it is the price of falling in love
I fear it is the price of falling in love
I fear it is the price of falling in love
I fear it is the price of falling in love
I fear it is the price of falling in love
The lyrics of "Innocente" by Delerium featuring Leigh Nash of Sixpence None the Richer describe the aftermath of a failed romantic relationship. The singer seems to be speaking to a former lover who can no longer see them or hear their words. The rain serves as a metaphor for the pain and sadness that the singer feels as they mourn the loss of their relationship. Despite the storm approaching and the impending loneliness, the singer still wishes to know when and how their love ended, suggesting they are still in denial and looking for closure. The repetition of "I suppose it is the price of falling in love" is a sobering realization that failed relationships are an inevitable part of the human experience.

You can't see my eyes
My emotions are concealed and I am hiding behind a mask
They don't see yours
You cannot see my emotions, and I cannot see yours
Hear me when I say
Listen to me, pay attention to my words
They don't mind at all
My emotions do not matter to you
It's the rain that I hear coming
I am afraid of the approaching storm
Not a stranger or a ghost
The fear is not caused by an outside force
Its the quiet of the storm approaching
The stillness and calm before the storm is what I fear
That I fear the most
The silence and anticipation of the storm is what causes me the most fear
Its the pain that I hear coming
I can sense the emotional pain that is approaching
The slightest crystal tear
Even the smallest drop of sadness brings me to tears
Drops to the ground in silence
My sadness and tears go unnoticed and unacknowledged
When my love is near
I feel the most intense emotions when I am with my loved one
Darling, when did you fall?
When did your love for me begin?
When was it over?
When did your love for me end?
It's marching through my door now
Loneliness is entering my life
The stoney cold of lonesome
Loneliness feels like an icy, unwelcoming presence
A bell tolls for my heart
My heart is broken and mourns its loss
And now my lonesome song begins
My expression of sadness and loneliness is beginning
I couldn't hear you.
I was not listening to your call for help
When did you cry?
When did you feel sadness and pain?
I suppose it is the price of falling in love
The emotional pain of losing love is an unavoidable consequence of loving someone
I fear it is the price of falling in love
I am afraid of the inevitable emotional pain that comes with love
I fear it is the price of falling in love
The fear of losing love always looms over me
I fear it is the price of falling in love
Love comes with a cost and that cost is often emotional pain
I fear it is the price of falling in love
The fear of losing love is a common and understandable fear
