BREAD

- Diary Lyrics

I found her diary underneath a tree
And started reading about me
The words she'd written took me by surprise
You'd never read them in her eyes

They said that she had found
The love she'd waited for
Wouldn't you know it?
She wouldn't show it

When she confronted with the writing there
Simply pretended not to care
I passed it off as just in keeping with
Her total disconcerting air

And though she tried to hide
The love that she denied
Wouldn't you know it?
She wouldn't show it
And as I go through my life
I will give to her my wife
All the sweet things, I can find

I found her diary underneath a tree
And started reading about me
The words began to stick and tears to flow
Her meaning now was clear to see

The love she'd waited for
Was someone else not me
Wouldn't you know it?
She wouldn't show it

And as I go through my life
I will wish for her his wife
All the sweet things she can find
All the sweet things they can find

What is the meaning behind Diary lyrics?


When we try to understand the message behind it, the song 'Diary' by Bread narrates a touching tale of a diary found that uncovers the unvoiced feelings of love and dissatisfaction. The words express the hurt caused by the truth that the dazing love intended for the singer is going to another, and throw light on the sad love story and the hidden feelings. Diary lyrics are mainly focussing on heartbreak, love, despair, angst, and reflection. In the meantime, the tune also highlights the roles of unrequited love, concealed emotions, and to some extent, reflection and acceptance.

Wish I could find a man who loved that strongly! It shows what a real man is like, willing to put the happiness of the one he loves first!
