Poor Me
Love's Betrayal: Adam Faith's 'Poor Me' Unveils Heartbreak and Deceit
Lyrics
Poor me wa a ha a ho
Expressing sadness or self-pity, using vocalized sounds.
Poor me wa a ha a ho
Repeating the expression of distress or unhappiness.
Sorry thoughts leaping around my head
Acknowledging thoughts of sorrow circulating in the mind.
It's been heard and it's been said
Noting that information has been heard and shared.
That
Transitioning to a specific event or situation.
You tried to date another guy
Indicating that the person being addressed attempted to pursue a relationship with someone else.
Didn't hide, didn't even try
Highlighting the lack of secrecy or effort in concealing the actions.
Cheating me with lies again
Accusing the person of betraying with deceitful statements.
Making me remember when
Stating that the actions evoke memories of a past betrayal.
I used to hold you baby
Recalling a time when the speaker held the person affectionately.
So tight, each night, that's right
Describing the intensity of the embrace on a nightly basis.
I kinda hoped that maybe you might
Expressing a desire or expectation for the person to reciprocate feelings.
Fall for me
Hoping for the person to fall in love with the speaker.
Why oh why do voices say to me
Pondering the reason behind distressing voices or thoughts.
Sit and cry, that this was meant to be
Feeling compelled to sit and cry due to a perceived destiny.
Loves unkind and loves untrue
Describing love as unkind and untrue.
Oh why did love pick out you
Questioning why love chose the person, implying regret.
For me, for me
Expressing personal sorrow or disappointment.
Wa ha poor me
Repeating the expression of self-pity.
Poor me
Reiterating the state of being in a pitiable situation.
I used to hold you baby
Recalling a past embrace with the person.
So tight, each night, that's right
Describing the tightness of the nightly embrace.
I kinda hoped that maybe you might
Expressing a repeated hope for the person to fall in love.
Fall for me
Repeating the desire for a mutual romantic feeling.
Why oh why do voices say to me
Questioning the origin or rationale behind distressing voices.
Sit and cry, that this was meant to be
Feeling compelled to cry based on a perceived destiny.
Loves unkind and loves untrue
Reiterating the negative qualities of love.
Oh why did love pick out you
Expressing regret or confusion about love's choice.
For me, for me
Repeating personal sorrow or disappointment.
Wa ha poor me
Repeating the expression of self-pity.
Poor me
Concluding with a repetition of being in a pitiable situation.
