I Still Miss Someone
Linda Ronstadt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A cold wild wind will come
Sweethearts walk by together
And I still miss someone
No I never got over those blue eyes
I see them everywhere
I miss those arms that held me
When all the love was there
For leaving what we'd begun
There's someone for me somewhere
But I still miss someone
No I never got over those blue eyes
I see them everywhere
I miss those arms that held me
When all the love was there
Linda Ronstadt's song I Still Miss Someone is a heartbreakingly beautiful ballad that captures the lingering pain of a lost love. The lyrics paint a picture of autumn leaves falling and a cold wind blowing as lovers walk by, highlighting the contrast between the beauty of the natural world and the emptiness of the singer's heart. The repetition of the title phrase throughout the song serves to emphasize the enduring nature of the singer's feelings and the unshakable grip that her lost love still holds on her.
The lyrics also speak to the regret and uncertainty that often accompanies the end of a relationship. The singer wonders if her former partner feels the same pain that she does and whether he regrets walking away from what they had together. At the same time, she acknowledges that there may be someone else out there for her, but the memory of her lost love remains a constant presence in her life.
Overall, I Still Miss Someone is a poignant and profound exploration of the human heart and the enduring power of love and loss.

Round my door the leaves are falling
Autumn has arrived as I observe fallen leaves outside my house
A cold wild wind will come
Winter is approaching and I can feel a chilling wind in the air
Sweethearts walk by together
I see couples walking hand in hand passing by my house
And I still miss someone
Despite the changing seasons and lovers passing by, my heart still longs for the one I miss
No I never got over those blue eyes
I am reminded of the one I miss through the eyes of others
I see them everywhere
The memories of the one I miss are constantly present in my mind
I miss those arms that held me
I long for the embrace of the one I miss, remembering the love we shared
When all the love was there
I reminisce the time when the love we shared was at its peak
I wonder if he's sorry
I contemplate if the one I miss regrets leaving what we once had
For leaving what we'd begun
The one I miss left our relationship unfinished, and I am left wondering what could have been
There's someone for me somewhere
In spite of missing someone, I remain hopeful that love will come again from someone else
But I still miss someone
Yet, my heart remains heavy with the memory of the one I miss
