Fare thee well, little broken heart
Downcast eyes, lifetime loneliness

Whatever walks in my heart will walk alone

Constant longing for the perfect soul
Unwashed scenery forever gone

Whatever walks in my heart will walk alone

No love left in me
No eyes to see the heaven beside me
My time is yet to come
So I'll be forever yours

Whatever walks in my heart will walk alone

No love left in me
No eyes to see the heaven beside me
My time is yet to come
So I'll be forever yours

No love left in me
No eyes to see the heaven beside me
My time is yet to come
So I'll be forever yours

Whatever walks in my heart will walk alone

    General Comment:It's not a bad songs but I much prefer their heavier and more symphonic works which is like, 95% of the band.

    General Comment:I think it's about losing someone that you loved, someone you would give your life for, and then just kind of giving up on love in general. Yet, said person still longs for the one they used to call "lover".

    Or something like that. xD

    General Comment:I do agree with the thought that it is about someone who once loved and then lost that love, however I think it was a forced loss; the person he/she loved was forced to leave due to varying circumstances, and despite both of their efforts to try and move on (even though they'll probably never see each other again), they still feel love for each other and are unable to love another.

    General Comment:This is such a beautiful song. It really reminds me of Titanic, and not just because of the tinwhistle. It's about Rose after the movie is over.

    Fare thee well, little broken heart
    (She's saying goodbye to her hurt feelings, and allowing herself to live on as she promised Jack)
    Downcast eyes, lifetime loneliness
    (But in her heart, she knows that she'll be alone as long as her life on earth remains)
    Whatever walks in my heart will walk alone
    (The love in her heart has to survive on its own)
    Constant longing for the perfect soul
    (She misses him desperately)
    Unwashed scenery forever gone
    (The imperfect perfection/unwashed scenery of her time with Jack can no longer be part of her life)
    No love left in me
    (No room to love anybody else)
    No eyes to see the heaven beside me
    (If there is true happiness and love waiting for her elsewhere, she is completely blind to it)
    My time is yet to come
    (Her death cannot arrive yet...she must wait for the day when she can join Jack in heaven)
    So I'll be forever yours
    (She'll never belong to anybody but Jack)

    I'm not saying this is the ultimate definition or anything. But it's something to think about, no?

    General Comment:I think this song is about what Toumas felt when he looked over at Tarja when she was singing.

    General Comment:I love this song. Gives me time to think about many things in my life, esp love life.

    It speaks about her loyalty to a loved one who has probably broken her heart, but she chooses to remain true with her feelings towards this person. She would rather have him than open her heart to other persons who'd want to come into her heart.
    Very sweet.

    General Comment:Just to add something.

    "No eyes to see the heaven beside me
    My time is yet to come"

    Even though she talks about heaven followed by a sentence related to death, I believe that by saying "beside me" she means that she can't see how wonderful life is. Heaven is just right there next to her but she doesn't see.

    General Comment:I think all can be right. Personally when I hear this song I associate somewhat with what truancy08 said. Cos it's my life currently.

    I'm currently in a relationship where I once knew what love was but not anymore, still I can't live without her even if all feelings inside me are all drained out I still belong to her because I don't know anything else besides my relation with her. Even though she might not be the "perfect soul" for me I'm hers...

    I feel that's what the song is about, although all the other options are just as right.

    To me, this sound as if they will be together forever when his time comes, meaning - when he dies; if we suppose that she (to whom he wrote it) dyed.

    General Comment:I think yous are all right.

    IMO, I think its about a relationship that didnt work out & this person is saying that even if they are no longer together, theyre forever theirs.
