Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
it's something that i never would of guessed
that you would be walking out that door
all the times i shared with you it was the best
i never would of thought you would of left
don't wanna stick around with me anymore
now i, i wish you would of told me
why, instead of just up and leaving before you said good-bye
if you ever really love somebody
what do you do when you lose somebody
this one is for the broken hearted
for the ones that's feeling all alone
if you ever really love somebody
know how it feels when you lose somebody
this one is for the broken hearted
for the ones that's feeling all alone
everyday it seems like rain is falling down
but nobody ever seems to be around
these pictures are bitter sweet memories
holding my head from pain that doesn't go away
and every morning i see your face baby
cos my mind forgets that you're not here
now i, i wish you would of told me
why, instead of just up and leaving before you said good-bye
if you ever.
if you ever really love somebody (if you ever)
what do you do when you lose somebody
this one is for the broken hearted (broken hearted)
for the ones that's feeling all alone (all alone)
if you ever really love somebody
know how it feels when you lose somebody
this one is for the broken hearted
for the ones that's feeling all alone
nobody wants to live alone (no they don't wanna live)
and if you've been touched by the words in this song
then you know if you ever.
if you ever really love somebody
what do you do when you lose somebody (oh)
this one is for the broken hearted (broken hearted)
for the ones that's feeling all alone (all alone)
if you ever really love somebody

this one is for the broken hearted
for the ones that's feeling all alone
if you ever really love somebody
what do you do when you lose somebody (if you ever loved)
this one is for the broken hearted
for the ones that's feeling all alone (if you ever loved)
if you ever really love somebody
know how it feels when you lose somebody
this one is for the broken hearted
for the ones that's feeling all alone

The lyrics to Lee Carr's "Song for the Broken Hearted" express the pain and confusion one feels after being suddenly abandoned by someone they loved. The first verse sets the scene, with the singer describing how he never expected his lover to leave him. He remembers all the good times they had together and wonders why she didn't even bother to say goodbye before she left. He wishes she had told him what was wrong so they could have tried to fix it. The second verse paints a picture of the singer's current state- he feels alone and lost in his memories of her. He sees her face every morning and has to remind himself that she's gone.
The chorus is the heart of the song, repeating the message that this one is for the broken hearted. It urges anyone who has ever truly loved and lost someone to take comfort in the fact that they are not alone in their pain. The bridge emphasizes the universal desire to be loved and not be alone. The final outro repeats the chorus and infuses it with an emotional and melodic lament.

This remembers me of my old love,
I´m 16 years old but I was sure she is the wife of my dreams,
Not only because of her Beauty, also because of her unique Character,
I did everything for her, she had many problems in school (other pupil
annoyed her and she often cried after school), but also she had many
problems at home and she wasnt allowed to meet with boys, I helped her
in school that the other kids stopped annoying her, and I got to know
her parents and they started to trust me, and because she said, she
didnt has a place where she can feel happy, I took her with me in my Box
gym, I everytime reassured her when she was sad,
This year on the valentines day I gave her a rose with a sweet card
formed as heart and told her about my feelings for her, she couldnt hand
back me love, so I was like everytime, gentle and nice, now I was
thinkin about to tell her another time that I love her so much, but then
I found out that she has an other guy,
After so much I did for her in believe that she has an unique character,
I know that she only enjoyed my attention and she exploited me
Faith, Hope and Love, イエスはあなたのことをとても愛してくれています。
I have a broken heart. I had a beautiful son with someone, and stuck around this man for over 7 years of listening to him say he would never marry me. I did everything possible to try and be good enough. It crushed me. I don't think people realize how much that can destroy someone especially if a little boy is involved :( . I love my son so much. Jesus holds the broken hearts. That bridge broke, but the one to Jesus's open arms lasts forever.

5 years and she walked out and left a voice message saying I'm seeing someone else and its over, if we ever cross paths again pretend as if you Dont know me..... It's been 12 years since and i haven't been able to forgive or forget her..... I still remember every conversation we had... I feel like an idiot but still haven't been able to get over her..... I remember all the conversations we had as if it was yesterday and all the moments we shared are burned in my skull to this this very day.... It fells ike as if she just left......
