For Whom The Bell Tolls Lyrics
Never really knew what it would've been like
You're no longer there to break my fall
The heartache over you
I'd give it everything but I couldn't live through
I never saw the signs
You're the last to know when love is blind
When I would not wait for no-one
Didn't stop and take a look at myself
And see me losing you
When the lonely heart breaks
It's the one that forsakes
It's the dream that we stole
And I'm missing you more
Than the fire that will roar
There's a hole in my soul
For you it's good-bye
For me it's to cry
For whom the bell tolls
A picture at a party where you shouldn't have been
Hanging on the arm of someone else
I'm still in love with you
Won't you come back to your little boy blue
I've come to feel inside
This precious love was never mine
That I could not live without you
In the dark or the broad daylight
I promise I'll be there
When I couldn't reach out to no-one
Am I never gonna find someone
Who knows me like you do
Are you leaving me a helpless child
When it took so long to save me
Fight the devil and the deep blue sea
I'll follow you anywhere
I promise I'll be there
Thank you for your useless comment Kyliec88...almost five years later. Just came across this song. Shame on me for not knowing all of the amazing songs the bee gees have created!
Since this site is meant for the interpretation of the bands/individuals here's a link to what this song may mean.

Such an amazing song that could mean deep emotional loss of a romantic or familial loved one. I think it depends on your perspective.
Genuinely shocked at the lack of comments in this song. Great love song.
Kyliec88, I share your feelings. Amazing lyrics, beautiful poetry. Too romantic, I dare to say it's "over romantic". It's completely understandable, there is no mistery in it, it's all descriptive and adjective. Perfect for a movie soundtrack.

This song is literally about losing that someone you love so much. Sometimes we may hurt and break a heart without knowing we're doing it, and suddenly you see yourself alone and hurt too. And that's when you realize you could do different but you cannot turn back time. And even though this song is about a loss, it still is my favorite song by the Bee Gees! Really love it!
