You'll Never Know
Tony Baker and his orchestra Lyrics

The lyrics to Tony Baker and his orchestra's song "You'll Never Know" speak to the pain of unrequited love. The singer is deeply in love with someone who may not feel the same way, and is haunted by the knowledge that they may never know just how much they miss and care for them. Despite this, the singer cannot hide their feelings and has likely expressed them multiple times. The chorus of the song repeats that the object of the singer's affections will never know just how much they are loved unless they acknowledge it.

The use of repetition in the lyrics underscores the intensity of the singer's feelings, as they have likely expressed themselves over and over again to the person they pine for. The singer's mentions of speaking the other person's name in their prayers show that their love for this person is all-encompassing and deeply felt. However, despite the depth of their love, the singer admits that they don't know how to prove it in any other way if it's not already apparent to the other person. The song is a poignant meditation on the pain of unrequited love and the hope that maybe, just maybe, the other person will someday realize the depth of their affection.
