My Love
Westlife Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

An empty street
An empty house
A hole inside my heart
I'm all alone
The rooms are getting smaller

I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had
The songs we sang together
Oh yeah
And all my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far

So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Over seas from coast to coast
To find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again, my love

I tried to read
I go to work
I'm laughing with my friends
But I can't stop
To keep myself from hinking
Oh no

I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had
The songs we sang together
Oh yeah
And all my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far

So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Over seas from coast to coast
To find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again

To hold you in my arms
To promise you my love
To tell you from my heart
You're all I'm thinking of
And reaching for the love that seems so far

(So) so I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Over seas from coast to coast
To find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again, my love

See you in a prayer
My sweet dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again
Over seas from coast to coast
To find the place I love the most




Where the fields are green
To see you once again, my love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Westlife's song My Love revolve around the theme of longing for a lost love. The song starts with a description of an empty street, an empty house and a hole inside the singer's heart. The empty rooms are getting smaller, which reflects his feelings of claustrophobia and loneliness. He wonders how, why and where they are, referring to his lost love and the memories they shared. He mentions the days they spent together, singing songs and expresses his desire to hold on to the love that seems so far away.


The chorus is a literal prayer to see his love again. He hopes that his dreams will take him to a place where the skies are blue, where he can find his lost love. He longs to see her again from coast to coast, to find the place he loves the most where the fields are green.
