Lyrics
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
Expression of a plea or request not to be disappointed or abandoned.
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
Reiteration of the plea or request for emotional support.
Nobody ever loved me like she does,
Comparison of the depth of love received to previous experiences.
Oh, she does, yeah, she does.
Acknowledgment of the intensity and uniqueness of the love received.
And if somebody loved me like she do me,
Imagining how it would feel if someone else loved the singer in a similar way.
Oh, she do me, yes, she does.
Confirmation of the positive and intense nature of the current love.
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
Reiteration of the request for emotional reliability.
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
Continued emphasis on the importance of not being let down.
I'm in love for the first time.
Declaration of being in love for the first time.
Don't you know it's gonna last.
Confidence in the enduring nature of the newfound love.
It's a love that lasts forever,
Description of the love as eternal and unbounded by time.
It's a love that had no past.
Contrasting the current love with relationships that had no lasting impact.
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
Repetition of the plea for emotional reliability.
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
Continued emphasis on the importance of not being let down.
And from the first time that she really done me,
Reflecting on the positive impact of the partner's actions in the past.
Oh, she done me, she done me good.
Reiterating the positive impact of the partner's actions in a playful manner.
I guess nobody ever really done me,
Expressing doubt that anyone else could match the positive impact received.
Oh, she done me, she done me good.
Playfully confirming the positive impact received from the current partner.
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
Reiteration of the request for emotional reliability.
Don't let me down, don't let me down.
Final plea for not being let down emotionally.
