what you do to me
Unveiling the Emotional Tapestry: 53 Thieves' 'What You Do to Me' Meaning
Lyrics
something takes a part of me
There's a sense of loss or change when you're away
every time you leave
Whenever you depart
every time you leave
Repeated emphasis on the impact of your absence
getting lost outside in the cold
Feeling disoriented and disconnected in a desolate environment
we faded, outdated
Our connection has weakened and is no longer relevant in the present
passed you by the side of the road
Passing you without stopping, perhaps metaphorically or physically
I'm fading, elated
Gradually losing strength but feeling a sense of joy or euphoria
something takes a part of me
Continued sense of loss or change upon departure
every time you leave
Reiterating the impact of your leaving
every time you leave
Repeated emphasis on the effect of your absence
something takes a part of me
Stating a recurring sense of something being taken away when you go
every time you leave
Reiterating the emotional impact upon departure
every time you leave
Repeated emphasis on the consequence of your departure
getting lost outside in the cold
Feeling lost and isolated in a cold, unfamiliar environment
we've faded, outdated
Our connection has weakened and is no longer relevant in the present
passed you by the side of road
Passing by without pausing or connecting, potentially symbolizing a missed opportunity
I'm fading, elated
Gradually losing strength but feeling a sense of joy or euphoria
I thought we'd make it
A thought or expectation that the relationship would endure
mmm what you do to me
Expressing the impact or effect the person has on the speaker, repeated for emphasis
mmm what you do to me
-mmm what you do to me
-mmm what you do to me
-something takes a part of me
Continued emphasis on the emotional impact or sense of loss upon the person's departure
every time you leave
-every time you leave
-something takes a part of me
-every time you leave
-every time you leave
-something takes a part of me
-every time you leave
-every time you leave
-something takes a part of me
-time you leave
-time you leave
Reiterating the effect of the departure on the speaker
