When Did Your Heart Go Missing?
Rooney Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love don't come so easily
This doesn't have to end in tragedy
I have you and you have me
We're one and a million
Why can't you see?

I'm waitin', waitin' for nothin'
You're leavin', leavin' me hangin'
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?

Yeah

I meant every word I said
I never was lyin' when we talked in bed
I'm retracin' every step in my head
What did I miss back then?
I was so, so misled

I'm waitin', waitin' for nothin'
You're leavin', leavin' me hangin'
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?

I don't understand
How could you forget what we had?
It's so wrong

I'm waitin', waitin' for nothin'
You're leavin', leavin' me hangin'
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?
I treat you like a princess
But your life is just one big mess
When did your heart go missin'?
When did your heart go missin'?

Things were so good
We had a little dream
A little dream together
Buy a house, settle down, do our thing
But you disappeared on me
And your heart, your heart went missin'
I don't know how to find it, I don't know where it is
I don't know where your heart went
It was here just the other day
Now it's gone




I'm gonna call the police
Call the investigator, the heart investigator

Overall Meaning

The song "When Did Your Heart Go Missing" by Rooney is about heartbreak and confusion in a failing relationship. The first verse laments how love doesn't come easily and how they don't want the relationship to end in tragedy. The chorus is a plea to the other person to understand what has happened, and how their heart seems to have gone missing. The second verse is particularly emotional, as the singer talks about the promises made in bed and how they feel misled. The bridge again asks when their heart went missing and declares confusion over how the other person could forget everything they had.


Overall, the song seems to be about the pain of a relationship breaking down, and the singer's frustration at not understanding why. They have given their all to the relationship and it has still failed, leaving them lost and confused.
