Stay Away from Me
Love's Painful Echo: Stay Away from Me, Bill Monroe's Heartfelt Plea
Lyrics
Stay away from me, you're causing me trouble
Stay away from me, as your presence is causing trouble in my life.
It's been that way, since from the start
Our relationship has been problematic since the beginning.
Go on your way, you have another waiting
Leave and go your own way, as there is someone else waiting for you.
Stay away from me, you're breaking my heart
Your presence is hurting me emotionally; stay away from me.
Oh the sky is blue, and the sun is shinning
Despite the beauty of the world (blue sky, shining sun, autumn leaves), our relationship is troubled.
And Autumn leaves have turned to brown
Symbolizing a picturesque setting, but the emotional tone remains somber.
I loved you so, but I can't have you
I had deep feelings for you, but circumstances prevent us from being together.
Stay away from me, stay out of town
Stay away from me and keep out of town; a plea for physical and emotional distance.
Stay away from me, I know what you're after
A warning to stay away, acknowledging the other person's intentions.
Its best if we, stay far apart
It's best for both of us to maintain a significant distance.
You brought me pain, no joy no laughter
Reflecting on the pain and absence of joy or laughter in the relationship.
Stay away from me, you're breaking my heart
Reiterating the emotional distress caused by the other person; a plea to stay away.
