No Love
The Notwist Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I try to be calm, but it makes me tired
I stare at my feet, I'm what you once admired
But you're not colder than before

Hi, it's me
Remember the things we've seen
Stay with me and appear on my inner screen
No love
No love
No love fit as you

No love




No love
No love fit as you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The Notwist's song "No Love" seem to explore feelings of loneliness and longing for an individual who was once loved. The singer appears to be struggling to maintain a calm demeanor, indicating that the separation from the person they once cherished has left them anxious and unsettled. The line "I stare at my feet, I'm what you once admired" suggests that they feel a sense of shame or inadequacy as a result of the relationship's end. However, they then acknowledge that the person they loved has not become colder or more distant, implying that the separation was not due to any change in the other person's feelings.


The second half of the lyrics take on a more pleading tone, as the singer directly addresses their former love interest. They ask the individual to "stay with me and appear on my inner screen," perhaps indicating a desire to hold onto memories of the happy times they shared. The chorus repeats the phrase "No love fit as you," further emphasizing that despite the separation and loneliness, this individual remains irreplaceable in the singer's eyes.


Overall, the lyrics suggest a deep sense of sorrow and loss, but also a sense of hope that perhaps the relationship could be salvaged or reconciled in some way.
