A Man Without Love
Engelbert Humperdinck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can remember when we walked together
Sharing a love I thought would last forever
Moonlight to show the way so we can follow
Waiting inside her eyes was my tomorrow
Then something changed her mind, her kisses told me
I had no loving arms to hold me

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Lonely is a man without love
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Knowing that it's cloudy above
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

I cannot face this world that's fallen down on me
So if you see my girl, please send her home to me
Tell her about my heart that's slowly dying
Say I can't stop myself from crying

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Lonely is a man without love
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Knowing that it's cloudy above
Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

Every day I wake up, then I start to break up
Lonely is a man without love




Every day I start out, then I cry my heart out
Lonely is a man without love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Engelbert Humperdinck's "A Man Without Love" depict a man who once had a love that he thought would last forever. However, something changed in his lover's mind and she left him with no explanation. He wakes up every day feeling lonely and heartbroken, unable to face the world that has fallen down on him. He asks anyone who sees his lover to send her back to him and tell her that his heart is slowly dying and he can't stop himself from crying.


The song captures the pain of losing love and the emptiness that it can leave behind. The use of the repetition of the phrase "Every day I wake up, then I start to break up" emphasizes the man's daily struggle with loneliness and heartbreak. The lines "Knowing that it's cloudy above" and "Moonlight to show the way so we can follow" contrast each other, highlighting how the man's life has changed from a bright, hopeful future to a dark, uncertain present.
