Lyrics
My heart is sad and lonely
Expressing sadness and loneliness in the heart.
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Expressing a deep sigh and longing solely 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 complete dedication, both physically and emotionally.
I spend my days in longing
Spending days in a state of yearning.
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
Wondering why the addressed person is treating the speaker unfairly.
I tell you I mean it
Emphasizing sincerity in the previous statements.
I'm all for you body and soul
Reiterating complete devotion physically and emotionally.
I can't believe it
Expressing disbelief in the situation.
It's hard to conceive it
Highlighting the difficulty in accepting the circumstances.
That you'd turn away romance
Expressing surprise that romance is being turned away.
Are you pretending
Questioning whether the addressed person is pretending.
It looks like the ending
Suggesting that the situation seems like it's coming to an end.
Unless I could have just one more chance to prove, dear
Expressing a desire for one more chance to prove love.
My life a wreck you're making
Describing life as being wrecked by the actions of the addressed person.
You know I'm yours for just the taking
Affirming the speaker's availability for the taking.
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
Expressing willingness to surrender entirely, both physically and emotionally.
My life a wreck you're making
Repeating the description of life in disarray due to the addressed person's actions.
You know I'm yours for the very taking
Reiterating the speaker's availability for the taking.
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
Expressing a renewed willingness to surrender entirely, both physically and emotionally.
