I'm Gonna Laugh You Right out of My Life
Laughing Away Heartbreak: Carmen McRae's Resilient Melody
Lyrics
I'm gonna laugh you right out of my life
I plan to dismiss you from my life with laughter.
Laugh, and forget this affair
Laughing will help me move on from this relationship.
Guess I was foolish
Admitting my own foolishness in investing emotions.
To care
I regret caring about this relationship.
So I'm gonna dance you right out of my dreams
I aim to eliminate thoughts of you through dancing in my dreams.
Try to be carefree and gay
Attempting to be carefree and happy despite the situation.
I guess I'll learn to play
Learning to play a role to cope with the emotional pain.
The part
Accepting the need to play a part in moving forward.
Cause when our friends begin that
Anticipating heartless rumors from friends.
Heartless rumor
Referring to gossip or untrue stories about the breakup.
I know I'll really need my
Acknowledging the importance of maintaining a sense of humor.
Sense of humor
Recognizing the need for humor to cope with the situation.
I'm gonna laugh you right out of my life
Reiterating the intention to use laughter to remove you from my life.
Make it a beautiful joke
Turning the breakup into a beautiful joke.
No one will know you broke
Hiding the fact that you broke my heart.
My heart
Expressing the emotional pain of a broken heart.
But if I find you and I
If I discover you genuinely meant the goodbye, I'll find it amusing.
Really meant that last goodbye
Reflecting on the potential sincerity of the last farewell.
Then I'm gonna laugh so hard
If the goodbye was genuine, I'll laugh so hard that I'll cry.
I'll cry
Expressing the intensity of mixed emotions if the farewell was sincere.
But if I find you and I
Repeating the theme of finding amusement in a genuine farewell.
Really meant that last goodbye
Reiterating the consideration of the sincerity of the goodbye.
Then I'm gonna laugh so hard
If the farewell was real, I'll laugh intensely, even to the point of tears.
I'll cry
Highlighting the emotional complexity of genuine goodbyes.
