Goin' out of My Head
Love's Desperation: Goin' Out of My Head by Billy Strange
Lyrics
Well, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Expressing a feeling of losing emotional control or sanity.
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Reiteration of the sense of losing control or becoming emotionally overwhelmed.
Over you, Over you
Highlighting the cause of distress, which is the person the singer is infatuated with.
I want you to want me, I need you so badly
Desire for reciprocation and a strong need for the person's affection.
I can't think of anything but you
Complete preoccupation with thoughts of the person, unable to focus on anything else.
And I think I'm goin' out of my head
Repeating the theme of emotional distress and mental instability.
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Continued expression of the overwhelming emotions experienced.
Over you, Over you
Reiterating that the cause of distress is the person in question.
I see you each morning
Observing the person regularly, emphasizing the intensity of the singer's feelings.
But you just walk past me You don't even know that I exist
Feeling unnoticed and unacknowledged by the person despite regular encounters.
Goin' out of my head over you
Repetition of the emotional turmoil caused by the person.
Out of my head over you Out of my head day and night
Intensifying the emotional distress experienced both day and night.
Night and day and night, Wrong or right
Indicating the constant internal struggle regardless of circumstances.
I must think of a way Into your heart
Expressing a desire to find a way to connect emotionally with the person.
There's no reason why My being shy Should keep us apart
Challenging the idea that shyness should be a barrier to a romantic connection.
And I think I'm goin' out of my head
Repeating the theme of losing emotional control over the situation.
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Emphasizing the ongoing struggle with overwhelming emotions.
Goin' out of my head over you
Reiteration of the emotional turmoil caused by the person.
Out of my head over you Out of my head day and night
Continued emphasis on the persistent and all-encompassing nature of the emotions.
Night and day and night, Wrong or right
Repeating the idea of the constant internal struggle, regardless of circumstances.
Night and day and night
Reiterating the internal conflict experienced during both day and night.
Wrong or right, day or night
Stressing that the emotional struggle persists regardless of what is deemed right or wrong.
Everyday, every, every day
Highlighting the enduring and daily nature of the emotional turmoil.
