Lyrics
I try to discover
I am attempting to find something about myself.
A little something to make me sweeter
Searching for a quality to enhance my personality.
Oh baby refrain from breaking my heart
Requesting not to cause emotional pain.
I'm so in love with you
Expressing deep affection for someone.
I'll be forever blue
Feeling persistently sad or melancholic.
That you gimme no reason
No apparent justification for your actions.
Why you make-a-me work so hard
Questioning the difficulty and effort in the relationship.
That you gimme no
Reiterating the absence of certain things (reasons or explanations).
That you gimme no
-That you gimme no
-That you gimme no
-Soul, I hear you calling
Referencing the inner self or conscience.
Oh baby, please, give a little respect to me
Pleading for consideration and acknowledgment of feelings.
And if I should falter
Inquiring if support would be given during a challenging moment.
Would you open you arms out to me?
Asking for emotional openness and acceptance.
We can make love not war
Suggesting choosing love over conflict.
And live at peace with our hearts
Promoting harmony and understanding.
I'm so in love with you
Reaffirming deep love despite challenges.
I'll be forever blue
Continuing to feel persistently sad or melancholic.
What religion or reason
Questioning the motivation behind actions.
Could drive a man to forsake his lover?
Contemplating what could lead someone to abandon their lover.
Don't you tell me no
Insisting on not receiving refusals or denials.
Don't you tell me no
-Don't you tell me no
-Don't you tell me no
-Soul, I hear you calling
Referring again to the inner self or conscience.
Oh baby, please, give a little respect to me
Repeating the plea for respect and understanding.
I'm so in love with you
Reiterating deep affection despite challenges.
I'll be forever blue
Persistently feeling sad or melancholic.
That you gimme no reason
No apparent justification for your actions.
You know you make-a-me work so hard
Emphasizing the difficulty and effort in the relationship.
That you gimme no
Reiterating the absence of certain things (reasons or explanations).
That you gimme no
-That you gimme no
-That you gimme no
-Soul, I hear you calling
Referencing the inner self or conscience once more.
Oh baby, please, give a little respect to me
Renewing the plea for consideration and acknowledgment.
Soul, I hear you calling
Repeating the call from the inner self or conscience.
Oh baby, please, give a little respect to me
Reiterating the plea for respect and understanding.
