Teardrops
Shakin’ Stevens Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Teardrops will fall because of you
Teardrops will fall for only you.
I want you so

You'll never know how much I need you.
Teardrops will fall if you don't need me
Teardrops will fall
Please believe me.
I want you so

You'll never know how much I need you.
As long as there's a moon above
There will be the two of us.
If you and I were meant to be
Tell me you love me and I'll be your only.
Teardrops will fall
Don't run and hide
Teardrops will fall
Stay by my side.
I want you so

You'll never know how much I need you.
As long as there's a moon above

Teardrops will fall
Teardrops will fall.
Oh yeah
Teardrops will fall
Teardrops will fall.
Tear




Tear will fall
Teardrops will fall.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Shakin’ Stevens’s song, “Teardrops,” describe the emotions of unrequited love. The first two lines state that the tears will fall because of that person, and for that person. The chorus is a repetition of these lines and emphasizes the essential point that the tears will only flow for that particular person. The singer’s deep love is revealed in the line, “You’ll never know how much I need you.” The tears will continue to flow if the person doesn’t reciprocate the love.


The lyrics express a plea for the affection of the person the singer loves. The chorus’s last two lines carry the underlying message that the singer’s love will only be reserved for that one person, “Tell me you love me, and I’ll be your only.” The song’s lyrics suggest that as long as there is a moon above, the singer's and their love interest's destinies are linked, “There will be the two of us.” The song concludes with the repetition of the chorus, “Teardrops will fall” with a final assertion that they will indeed fall.
