How Do You Think I Feel
Love's Deception: Elvis Presley's Heartbreak Tale
Lyrics
How do you think I feel?
Expressing a question about emotional state in response to a situation
Well, I know your love's not real
Acknowledging the perceived insincerity of the partner's love
The girl I'm mad about is just a gadabout
Describing the girl the singer is passionate about as carefree and perhaps unreliable
How do you think I feel?
Reiterating the emotional impact of the situation and seeking understanding
How do you think we stand?
Asking about the current standing of the relationship
I know you've made your plan
Acknowledging the partner's plan, possibly indicating a feeling of being excluded or deceived
But you've included three
Pointing out that the partner has involved three people, suggesting a complicated love triangle
And that's too much for me
Expressing discomfort with the complexity of the relationship
How do you think I feel?
Reiterating the emotional impact and seeking understanding
I won't be true again
Declaring an unwillingness to be faithful again due to perceived futility
I know that I can't win
Recognizing the impossibility of winning in the current circumstances
So why should I pretend
Questioning the need to pretend when the partner no longer loves the singer
That you still love me?
Expressing doubt about the partner's continued affection
How do you think I feel?
Repeating the question about emotional state in response to the ongoing situation
Well, I know your love's not real
Reiterating the belief that the partner's love is insincere
The one I'm mad about is just a gadabout
Describing the girl the singer is passionate about as a carefree wanderer
How do you think I feel?
Reiterating the emotional impact and seeking understanding
How do you think I feel?
Repeating the question about emotional state and relationship status
Well, I know your love's not real
Affirming the belief in the partner's insincere love
The girl I'm mad about is just a gadabout
Reiterating the description of the girl as a carefree wanderer
How do you think I feel?
Reiterating the emotional impact and seeking understanding
How do you think we stand?
Repeating the inquiry into the relationship's standing
I know you've made your plan
Acknowledging the partner's plan and its impact
But now this pretty face,
Noting a new development where a pretty face has disrupted the singer's position
Has put me out of place
Expressing being displaced or unsettled by the introduction of a new factor
How do you think I feel?
Reiterating the emotional impact and seeking understanding
I won't be true again
Declaring a reluctance to be faithful again due to perceived futility
I know that I can't win
Acknowledging the impossibility of winning in the given circumstances
So why should I pretend
Questioning the need to pretend when the partner's love is no longer present
That you still love me?
Expressing doubt about the partner's continued affection
How do you think I feel?
Repeating the question about emotional state and relationship status
Well, I know your love's not real
Reiterating the belief in the partner's insincere love
And you've included three
Highlighting the inclusion of three individuals as a complicating factor
And that's too much for me
Expressing discomfort with the complexity of the relationship
How do you think I feel?
Reiterating the emotional impact and seeking understanding
