The song "No One Ever Knows" by Sheena Easton is about a woman living a busy and successful life in a fast-paced city. Despite her accomplishments and fulfilling her dreams, there is something missing in her life – her love interest, whom she is deeply longing for. The lyrics express her feelings of loneliness and longing for her partner. She keeps her emotions hidden from others, never letting anyone see how much he means to her. She craves his company to fill the void in her life. However, whenever they kiss, she feels a sense of goodbye, implying that their relationship is unstable, perhaps due to distance or uncertainty. The chorus repeats the theme of her hidden love and longing. No one else knows the depth of her feelings for him, and she wonders why they have to say goodbye every time they are together. The song also describes the loneliness and emptiness the woman feels in the city, particularly at night when the bustling streets are deserted. The silence reminds her of all the memories and moments she shared with her love, making the longing even more intense. The lyrics convey her frustration and desire for her partner to acknowledge their love and make up his mind about their relationship. She dreams of the day when he will fully commit to their love and not keep it hidden anymore. Overall, "No One Ever Knows" is a heartfelt song about a woman yearning for love and companionship, while struggling to balance her successful, yet empty, life.
