Where Is the Love
Raul Midón Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Silence sings
Inside your mind
Nothing left
To lose or find
In time
You'll find
That love is blind
Glittered streets
All paved with gold
Hearts will beat
And the young get old
In time
You'll find
That love is blind
When I'm home
Or far away
I can't see your face
But when my hope
Has gone astray
Love's my saving grace
Ocean wears away the shore
The rich will always need the poor
In time
You'll find
That love is blind
All love is blind
Love is blind




Love is blind
All love is blind

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Raul Midón's Where Is the Love? speak about the experience of finding love and the power of love to endure even in the midst of difficulty. The opening lines, "Silence sings inside your mind, nothing left to lose or find in time" suggest a sense of inner quiet and reflection, as if the singer is searching within themselves for something meaningful. The refrain, "In time you'll find that love is blind" further reinforces the theme of love's transcendence and how it can conquer all obstacles.


The second stanza evokes striking imagery of "glittered streets all paved with gold" and "hearts will beat and the young get old," suggesting a sense of wonder and beauty in the world of love. The third stanza brings the message home, as the singer contemplates the power of love to sustain them even when apart from the object of their affection. The line "when my hope has gone astray, love's my saving grace" suggests that love is not just blind, but also transformative in its ability to uplift and restore us even in our darkest moments. The final stanza speaks to the universality of love and how it encompasses all people, even those with different backgrounds, social classes, and perspectives.


Line by Line Meaning

Silence sings
The inner part of oneself is expressed in silence


Inside your mind
Within one's own thoughts


Nothing left
No remnants exist


To lose or find
To come across or misplace


In time
Over the course of time


You'll find
One will discover


That love is blind
Love overlooks flaws and imperfections


Glittered streets
Streets with a sparkling appearance


All paved with gold
Everything appears perfect and prosperous


Hearts will beat
Emotions will be felt


And the young get old
Time inevitably passes


When I'm home
In one's residence


Or far away
Or in a distant location


I can't see your face
Physical appearance is obscured


But when my hope
When expectations falter


Has gone astray
Has become lost or misguided


Love's my saving grace
Love rescues one from despair


Ocean wears away the shore
The constant change of life wears down stability


The rich will always need the poor
Society is dependent on class differences


All love is blind
All forms of love overlook imperfections


Love is blind
Love disregards defects


Love is blind
Love overlooks flaws


All love is blind
All types of love overlook imperfections

Great tune, love it!

Ciego desde que era un bebe, Midón que nació en Nuevo México es hijo de argentino y afroamericana y ha estado desde siempre vinculado con la música. #SmoothVocals

Raul, your music is so inspiring. When I listen to your songs, I start to imagine a drum track in my head flowing in between the percussions (I'm a drummer, by the way). You make me wanna be a better musician every single day. Thanks for being so authentic, simple and pure.

@BmakinFilm
