Big Party
Heartache at a Big Party
Lyrics
She invited me
She invited the speaker.
Cause she knew you would bring me
She invited the speaker because she anticipated the speaker's attendance.
She makes it so plain to see
She makes it evident and clear.
She's trying to take you from me
She is attempting to win the speaker's partner away.
It's a big party, a big party, a big party
It's a lively and significant celebration.
But a sad party for me
Despite the festive atmosphere, it's a melancholic event for the speaker.
I can hear her laughter
The speaker hears the rival's laughter.
And I know what she's after
The speaker understands the rival's intentions.
She's playing up to you
The rival is trying to attract the speaker's partner.
It's breaking my heart in two
The situation is causing emotional pain for the speaker.
It's a big party, a big party, a big party
It's a large and important celebration.
Sad party for me
Despite its size, it's a sorrowful occasion for the speaker.
If you want her more than you want me
Questioning the partner's feelings, suggesting a potential choice.
Tell me now, tell me now so I can leave
Requesting honesty about the partner's affections.
Don't even bother taking me home
Expressing readiness to leave if the partner prefers someone else.
I know they're all alone
Aware that others are romantically available at the party.
Now she's turned the lights down low
The ambiance has become more intimate.
And the music they're playing is slow
The music has slowed down, suggesting a romantic setting.
I see the way she looks at you
The rival is observed looking at the partner with romantic interest.
I see the way you look at her too
The partner is observed reciprocating the romantic interest.
It's a big party, a big party, a big party
Reiteration of the grand scale of the party and the speaker's sadness.
A sad party for me
Despite its size, the party brings sorrow to the speaker.
A big party, a big party
Emphasizing the magnitude of the party.
Sad, sad party
Affirmation of the melancholic nature of the party for the speaker.
