Lyrics
Another night she sleeps alone
Expresses loneliness as a woman sleeps alone.
As she waits for her Romeo
Waiting for a romantic partner, alluding to the story of Romeo and Juliet.
It's the kind of things you read in books
Describing romantic situations commonly found in literature.
Where he's doin' things that she don't know
Suggesting secrecy or hidden actions by the partner.
Passion gets the best of some
Highlighting how passion can lead to trouble.
While pain always is the hardest part
Emphasizing the difficulty of dealing with emotional pain.
And even when you find the one
Even when finding the right person, relationships can end quickly.
It's really over before you start
Relationships may fail before truly beginning.
Love's more than a 4-letter word
Love is complex and goes beyond a simple word.
It's everything that they say is real
Love encompasses everything described as real.
And never think that it can't hurt
Love can be painful despite expectations.
Even when you've got
Even with a tough exterior, one can still feel pain.
A heart of steel
Reiterating the theme of having a resilient heart.
She waits for the phone to ring
A woman anxiously waits for a phone call.
As the tears fall from her eyes
Expressing sadness through tears.
And starts to wonder of what was told
Questioning the truth of information received.
Is it true or was it lies
Doubt about the veracity of past statements.
Passion gets the best of some
Reiteration of passion causing difficulty.
While pain always is the hardest part
Pain is emphasized as the most challenging aspect.
And even when you find the one
Warning that relationships may end prematurely.
It's really over before you start
Repeating the idea that love is more than expected.
Love's more than a 4-letter word
Elaborating on the complexity and depth of love.
It's everything that they say is real
Love involves everything considered genuine.
And never think that it can't hurt
Love has the potential to cause pain.
Even when you've got
Even with a tough exterior, one can still feel pain.
A heart of steel
Reiterating the theme of having a resilient heart.
A shot to the body
Describing a physical blow to the body.
Straight to the heart
Emphasizing the impact on the heart.
It doesn't matter cause it's all the same
Indicating that the outcome is indifferent.
That look in your eyes tears me apart
Describing the emotional impact through eye contact.
But I know I can live with this pain
Acceptance of living with emotional pain.
You take the good, you take the bad
Life includes both positive and negative experiences.
But I know we can make it
Confidence in overcoming challenges in a relationship.
'Cause with one touch
A single touch can soften a tough exterior.
You can melt this heart of steel
Reiteration of the complexity of love.
Love's more than a 4-letter word
Love encompasses everything described as real.
It's everything that they say is real
