You'll Never Never Know
Unrevealed Longing: Emotions Hidden in 'You'll Never Never Know'
Lyrics
(You'll never know)
Expressing the impossibility of someone ever knowing something.
You'll never, never know I care
Stating that the depth of caring will remain unknown to the person.
You'll never know the torch I bear
Referring to a hidden emotional burden or pain that won't be revealed.
You'll never know it, for I won't show it
Indicating a decision not to show the emotional pain to the other person.
Oh, no, you'll never, never know
Emphasizing the certainty that the person will never know the undisclosed feelings.
(You'll never know)
Reiterating the theme of the person never knowing something important.
You'll never, never see me cry
Declaring that the person won't witness any expression of sadness or tears.
Not even when you're glancing by
Asserting emotional strength, even in the presence of the person.
For I won't weaken, when we're speaking
Committing to emotional resilience during conversations.
Oh, no, you'll never, never know
Reiterating the certainty that the person will remain unaware of the true emotions.
You'll know the used to me
Implies a transformation from the past, suggesting changes in the speaker.
That I was before
Referring to a previous version of the speaker that the person is familiar with.
You'll see the used to be
Suggesting a shift from a former state of adoration by the person.
That one you did adore
Highlighting the contrast between the past and the present state of admiration.
(You'll never know)
Repeating the theme of keeping something undisclosed to the person.
No, no I know I won't reveal
Affirming the intention not to reveal true feelings or emotions.
The way I really truly feel
Expressing a commitment to conceal genuine emotions.
But if you guess it
Hinting at a possibility of revealing emotions if guessed by the person.
I'll confess it
Promising to confess true feelings if the person correctly guesses them.
Oh, darling now the time to plot
Indicating a sense of urgency to act before it's too late to know the truth.
Or else you'll never, never know
Emphasizing the importance of timely action to avoid perpetual ignorance.
You'll know the used to me

That I was before
Reiterating the transformation and change in the speaker over time.
You'll see the used to be
Highlighting the shift from a previously adored state to a different one.
That one you did adore
Emphasizing the alteration in the person's feelings towards the speaker.

Repeating the decision not to reveal true emotions to the person.
No, no I know I won't reveal
Affirming the commitment to keep emotions hidden and undisclosed.
