TOOT TOOT Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It was the sweetest melody
I know I lost heaven 'cause you were the song
Since you and I have drifted apart
Life doesn't mean a thing to me
Please come back, sweet music, I know I was wrong
You know that we were meant to be more than just friends, just friends
I let a song go out of my heart
Believe me, darlin', when I say
I won't know sweet music until you return some day
I let a song go out of my heart
Believe me, darlin', when I say
I won't know sweet music until you return some day
The lyrics of TOOT TOOT's song "My Heart" express regret and longing for a lost love. The opening lines "I let a song go out of my heart, it was the sweetest melody" signifies that the love and happiness that were once a part of life have been lost. This song was the representation of the singer's love, and without it, their heart feels empty.
The following lines "I know I lost heaven 'cause you were the song" shows that the lost song was a symbol of the singer's love with the person they lost. "Heaven" symbolizes the happiness, while "song" symbolizes the love that brought that happiness. The next lines "Since you and I have drifted apart, life doesn't mean a thing to me" show that the separation from their significant other has left them feeling hopeless and without purpose, lacking the sweet music that once filled their life.
The chorus, "Am I too late to make amends? / You know that we were meant to be more than just friends, just friends / I let a song go out of my heart" pictures the regret for taking the love for granted and the desire to get back together with the lost loved one. The last line in the chorus, "I let a song go out of my heart," is repeated again, emphasizing how significant the loss of love through the song is to the singer.
Overall, the lyrics of "My Heart" sincerely express the heartache and remorse of lost love.

I let a song go out of my heart
I lost the love of my life and the sweet music that we shared
It was the sweetest melody
Our love was once beautiful and harmonious
I know I lost heaven 'cause you were the song
Since you left me, my life has been empty and meaningless; you were the reason for my happiness and contentment
Since you and I have drifted apart
After we separated, my life lost all meaning and purpose
Life doesn't mean a thing to me
Without you, my life is devoid of joy and significance
Please come back, sweet music, I know I was wrong
I'm begging you to forgive me and return to me, because I realize now that I made a mistake in letting you go
Am I too late to make amends?
I wonder if there's any chance for us to reconcile, or if I've lost you forever
You know that we were meant to be more than just friends, just friends
Our love was more than just a casual friendship; it was a deep and meaningful connection that I treasured deeply
Believe me, darlin', when I say
I'm sincere and earnest when I express my feelings to you
I won't know sweet music until you return some day
I won't be happy or fulfilled until you're back in my life again
