Body and Soul
Soulful Longing: Unveiling the Heartfelt Depths of 'Body and Soul' by George Cables
Lyrics
My heart is sad and lonely
Expressing sadness and loneliness in the heart.
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Longing and sighing exclusively for the person addressed.
Why haven't you seen it
Questioning why the addressed person hasn't noticed the emotions.
I'm all for you body and soul
Declaring a complete devotion of oneself both physically and emotionally.
I spend my days in longing
Days filled with yearning and confusion about being wronged.
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
Expressing genuine disbelief and questioning the reasons for feeling wronged.
I tell you I mean it
Emphasizing the sincerity of feelings and emotions.
I'm all for you body and soul
Reiterating the complete dedication of oneself physically and emotionally.
I can't believe it
Expressing disbelief in the situation.
It's hard to conceive it
Highlighting the difficulty in comprehending the circumstances.
That you'd turn away romance
Expressing surprise or disappointment at the rejection of romantic advances.
Are you pretending
Posing a question about the sincerity of the addressed person.
It looks like the ending
Suggesting a potential end to the relationship.
Unless I could have just one more chance to prove, dear
Expressing a desire for another opportunity to prove love.
My life a wreck you're making
Describing the impact of the situation on the speaker's life.
You know I'm yours for just the taking
Affirming the availability and willingness to be taken by the addressed person.
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
Offering complete surrender of oneself both physically and emotionally.
My life a wreck you're making
Reiterating the impact of the situation on the speaker's life.
You know I'm yours for the very taking
Reaffirming the readiness to be taken by the addressed person.
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
Repeating the willingness to surrender completely to the person in body and soul.
