For No One Lyrics
Your day breaks, your mind aches
You find that all her words of kindness linger on
When she no longer needs you
She wakes up, she makes up
She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to hurry
She no longer needs you
And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years
You want her, you need her
And yet you don't believe her
When she says her love is dead
You think she needs you
And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years
You stay home, she goes out
She says that long ago she knew someone but now
He's gone, she doesn't need him
Your day breaks, your mind aches
There will be times when all the things she said will fill her head
You won't forget her
And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years
this song makes me cry almost everytime i play it. mainly because it reminds me of myself being the woman in the song. i worry that's (the lyrics) what my boyfriend thinks at times. it so depresses me! but it's beautiful. amazing what songs do to you, eh?
@DaisyDarling as someone once said to me you are beautiful always in all ways and they meant it for all of humanity i will be in contact with you early in the new year and explain this

One of my favorite "break-up songs" and Beatles songs in general.
There's no sentimentality behind it. It just is what it is...people in relationships change after a while and this change in feelings isn't always mutual. So you have to deal with it. But god damn does it suck.
Totally agree. I think this is probably Reason No. 1 why the divorce rate is 50%.

Wow, after being left by someone I thought I had a future with, that I thought I meant something to, this song has become so powerful to me. It fucks you up to realize that someone that is so important to you, isn't all that interested in you anymore. Everything they said to you when you were together that made you feel so good, seems to have really meant nothing. Goddamn.

To think like this is to do yourself & former love such a terrible disservice of disingenuity. Of course you meant something to them during your time together. Back then, it was real. It was genuine. It is just that you no longer mean as much to them. Some relationships are not meant to last. They exist to prepare each individual for future, longer term pairings. They endow people with experience to enable different/better treatment of future partners. It...

One of Paul's best songs. It is sad but a true song for alot of people.
This song is beautiful yet so sad...
I think she still loves him, but he screwed up so she is never taking him back, she's crying tears for no one, because the guy she loved no longer exists to her.
@HeythereDelilah Yes, she's suffering as much loss as he is. The death of love. Maybe he didn't screw up. Maybe they just grew apart as they grew older. It happens...often. What can be sadder.

this is a great song. often overlooked, i think it has much more to it than 'yesterday'
i agree, this song is so much more... i dunno, just better than 'yesterday'
An amazing song. Means alot to me. Beatles never get as much respect as they should now-a-days.
Possibly the second most beautiful track I've ever heard, save for The Everly Brothers' "Sweet Memories".
