Donnie
Unrequited Longing: Donnie's Secret Love Story Unveiled
Lyrics
Donnie's got a secret and you know it
Donnie has a secret, known to you
He was yours, in the summertime, yeah
He belonged to you in the past summers
About ten years ago
Refers to a period about ten years ago
He promised you to stay forever
Donnie promised eternal commitment to you
Live with you
To live with you
It's so bittersweet now
The situation is now both pleasant and painful
When you know what you lost
Regret for realizing what was lost
Donnie was the boy you always wanted by your side
Donnie was the desired companion
Donnie was the boy your girlfriends fell for one by one
Donnie attracted your friends one after another
Donnie was the boy you always wanted day and night
Desire for Donnie persisted day and night
But Donnie had a girlfriend: tender, sexy, sweet and
Donnie had a girlfriend who was tender, sexy, sweet, and blond
Blond
Description of Donnie's girlfriend
He's always on your mind
Donnie occupies constant thoughts
The season changes
Time passes, seasons change
Years went by
Years have gone by
But that chapter of love stays unfinished for you
A past love story remains incomplete
Keep on dancing through your new life
Encouragement to continue dancing in the new phase of life
Maybe, make a move
Suggesting to take action
Make him see you again,
Urge to make Donnie notice you again
As the flower you are
Portraying yourself as a desirable flower
Donnie was the boy you always wanted by your side
Reiteration of Donnie as the desired companion
Donnie was the boy your girlfriends fell for one by one
Repetition of Donnie attracting friends
Donnie was the boy you always wanted day and night
Reiteration of persistent desire for Donnie
But Donnie had a girlfriend, tender, sexy, sweet and
Reiteration of Donnie having a specific type of girlfriend
Blond
Repetition of the description of Donnie's girlfriend
In the summer time, yeah
Refers to a past summer
In the summer time, life was easy
Life was easy during the summer
On the beach you had him long ago
Memories of having Donnie on the beach
In the summer time, yeah
Repeats the idea of an easy life in the summer
In the summer time, life was easy
Repeats the notion of life being easy in the summer
On the beach you had him long ago
Repeats the memory of having Donnie on the beach
Donnie was the boy you always wanted by your side
Reiteration of Donnie as the desired companion
