World Without Love
Gordon Peter Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
And rain clouds hide the moon
I'm okay, here I'll stay
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
So I wait and in a while
I will see my true love's smile
She may come, I know not when
When she does I lose
So baby until then
Lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
So I wait and in a while
I will see my true love's smile
She may come, I know not when
When she does I lose
So baby until then
Lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside where I hide
With my loneliness
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
I don't care what they say I won't stay
In a world without love
Gordon Peter's song, "World without Love" is a poignant reflection on loneliness and the pain of being without the love of one's life. The singer of the song is begging to be locked away from the world because they cannot bear the thought of living in a world without love. They are hiding away from life with their loneliness, as they find the world to be an incredibly uninviting place without love.
The lyrics include melancholic descriptions of nature, with the birds singing out of tune and rain clouds hiding the moon. The world around the singer is a reflection of their own inner turmoil and loneliness. The lyrics also express hope, as the singer mentions waiting for their true love to return. However, this hope is also tinged with sadness, as they acknowledge they do not know when she will return, and until then they must remain locked away with their loneliness.
The song captures the essence of heartbreak and the longing for lost love. It's a reminder that love is a fundamental aspect of the human experience, and without it, life can feel empty and meaningless. The song has enduring popularity, resonating with people of all ages and backgrounds.
Line by Line Meaning
Please lock me away
I want to be disconnected from the world
And don't allow the day
I don't want to see daylight
Here inside where I hide
I prefer to be hidden and isolated
With my loneliness
Because being alone is better than living in a world without love
I don't care what they say I won't stay
I don't value other people's opinions because for me a world without love is not worth staying in
In a world without love
Where affection towards others is nonexistent
Birds sing out of tune
The harmony of nature is out of balance without love
And rain clouds hide the moon
Negative emotions block out the beauty of life
I'm okay, here I'll stay
I can accept my lonely existence
So I wait and in a while
I keep hoping for a bright future
I will see my true love's smile
The prospect of being with someone who truly loves me gives me hope
She may come, I know not when
I don't know when love will arrive in my life
When she does I lose
I'm willing to give up my current state of solitude for love
So baby until then
But until that time comes
In a world without love
Where the purity of human connection is lacking
I don't care what they say I won't stay
I'll continue to reject this world without love
Lock me away
I'd rather be imprisoned privately in my own mind
And don't allow the day
Than to face the harsh reality that life without love presents.
Here inside where I hide
The only place where I feel safe is within my own mind
With my loneliness
Although a painful reality, it's still better to be alone than in a world without love

Paul McCartney gave his girlfriend's brother a No 1 hit song in the UK. None of my sister's boyfriends got me anything.
