You'll Never Know
Engelbert Humperdinck Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You'll never know just how much I care
And if I tried, I still couldn't hide my love for you
You ought to know, for haven't I told you so
A million or more times?
You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now
(You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer)
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now
You'll never know if you don't know now
The lyrics of Engelbert Humperdinck's song You’ll Never Know are a lamentation of a person who misses and loves somebody deeply but hasn't been able to express it to them. The first two lines set up the theme of the song as being about a person who will never know how much they are missed and cared for. The third and fourth lines of the song introduce a note of regret and despair- the singer has tried to convey their love for the other person, but to no avail, they haven't been able to hide their love either.
The rest of the song captures the pain of separation and unrequited love. The line "You went away and my heart went with you" echoes the sentiment of the famous saying, "where you go, my heart will go too." The singer misses the other person so much that they speak their name in every prayer. The last two lines of the song- "If there is some other way to prove that I love you, I swear I don't know how, you'll never know if you don't know now" - suggest a plea to the other party to recognize the depth of the singer's love before it's too late.
Overall, the lyrics of the song are a poignant expression of unrequited love and the longing to be loved and recognized.

You'll never know just how much I miss you
I miss you more than words can say
You'll never know just how much I care
I care about you deeply
And if I tried, I still couldn't hide my love for you
Even if I tried to hide it, my love for you is too strong to conceal
You ought to know, for haven't I told you so
I've told you numerous times before, so you should already know
A million or more times?
I've told you so many times, it's hard to keep count
You went away and my heart went with you
When you left, you took a piece of my heart with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
I pray for you constantly and mention your name in my prayers
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
If there's another way to show you how much I love you
I swear I don't know how
I honestly don't know how to do it
You'll never know if you don't know now
If you don't already know, you may never know how much I love you
