Loan Me a Dime
Yearning Echoes: Seeking Solace in a Borrowed Dime
Lyrics
Somebody loan me a dime
Requesting someone to lend money
I need to call my old time used to be
Expressing a need to reconnect with a past love
Somebody loan me a dime
Reiterating the plea for financial assistance
I need to call my old time that used to be
Re-emphasizing the desire to contact the past love
Little girl's been gone so long
Stating that a girl has been absent for a long time
You know it's worrying me
Expressing worry due to the girl's absence
Hey, it's worrying, worrying me
Reinforcing the worry caused by the girl's absence
I know she's a good girl
Acknowledging the girl's goodness but not understanding it earlier
But at that time I just didn't understand
Reflecting on past lack of understanding about the girl
I know she's a good girl
Recognizing the girl's goodness despite previous misunderstanding
But at that time I just didn't understand, oh no, I didn't
Reiterating past failure to understand the girl
Somebody loan me a dime
Requesting financial help again
You know I need, I need a helping hand
Expressing a need for assistance
Oh, she's a good girl
Repeating acknowledgment of the girl's goodness
But at that time I just didn't understand
Reflecting on past misunderstanding despite the girl's goodness
Ooh, I know she's a good girl
Reiterating acknowledgment of the girl's goodness
But at that time I just could not understand (oh no)
Re-emphasizing past failure to understand the girl's goodness
Somebody better loan me that dime
Urging someone to lend the needed dime to ease worries
To ease my worried mind
Expressing the need for relief from mental distress
Now I cry, I just cry
Describing crying like a baby due to emotional pain
Just like a baby all night long
Reiterating the intense emotional distress and crying
You know I cry, I just cry
Re-emphasizing the emotional distress and crying
Just like a baby all night long
Repeating the comparison of crying to that of a baby
Somebody better loan me that dime
Reiterating the plea for financial help to reunite with the loved one
I need my baby, I need my baby here at home (ooh yeah)
Expressing the need to have the loved one back home
