You've Changed
Transforming Love: George Michael's 'You've Changed' Unveils Heartache
Lyrics
You've changed
You have transformed or evolved in some way.
That sparkle in your eyes has gone
The sparkle or enthusiasm that was once in your eyes is no longer present.
Your smile is just a careless yawn
Your smile now seems indifferent and uninterested, like a casual yawn.
You're breaking my heart, you've changed
Your change is causing emotional pain; it feels like you're breaking the speaker's heart.
You've changed
Reiteration of the idea that a significant transformation has occurred in the person.
Your kisses are now so blase
Your kisses have become unenthusiastic or indifferent.
You're bored with me in every way
You seem bored and disinterested in the speaker in every aspect.
I can't understand you've changed
The speaker is having difficulty comprehending or accepting the extent of the change.
You've forgotten the word I love you
You no longer say the meaningful words "I love you."
Each memory that we've shared
The shared memories between the speaker and the person are being forgotten or ignored.
You ignore every star above you
You are neglecting or overlooking the beauty and significance of the world around you.
I can't realize you ever cared
The speaker struggles to believe that you ever truly cared about them.
You've changed
A reaffirmation of the significant change that has taken place in the person.
You're not the angel I once knew
You are no longer the kind and loving person the speaker once knew.
No need to tell me that we're through
No need to inform the speaker, the relationship is already over.
It's all over now, you've changed
The transformation is complete; it's the end of the relationship.
You've forgotten the word I love you
A repetition emphasizing the absence of the words "I love you" in the relationship.
Each memory that we've shared
Continued disregard for the shared memories and experiences.
You ignore every star above you
Continued neglect of the beauty and significance of life around you.
I can't realize you ever cared
The speaker struggles to believe in the sincerity of past caring and affection.
You've changed
Reiteration of the significant change in the person's character or demeanor.
You're not the angle I once knew
Emphasizing the departure from the angelic qualities the person once possessed.
No need to tell me that we're through
No need to explicitly state the end; it's already understood.
It's all over now, you've changed
The final confirmation that the relationship is over due to the profound change.
I miss you
An expression of longing and a sense of loss for the person who has changed.
