Awful
Sweet Sorrow: Unveiling the Awful Depths of Love in Goodtime Sam's Melody
Lyrics
Oh please don't go
The speaker pleads for the person not to leave.
Baby you know
Expressing that the person being addressed is aware of the situation.
That I need you so
The speaker emphasizes their strong dependency on the person.
Oh it's awful
Describing the emotional state as terrible or distressing.
You make me feel so awful
Attributing the feeling of awfulness to the impact the person has on the speaker.
Where do you go
Repeated questioning about the destination of the person when leaving.
Where do you go
-Each time you leave me
Expressing the pain caused by the person's departure.
I wish you would see me
Expressing a desire for the person to notice the speaker.
But you'd rather deceive me
Suggesting the person prefers deception over honesty with the speaker.
Rather than free me
Implies that the person's actions are confining the speaker rather than setting them free.
Of these chains
Metaphorically refers to emotional bondage caused by the person.
And all of this pain
Highlighting the intensity of emotional distress.
All of this pain
-Will I ever
Expressing uncertainty about meeting the person again.
See you again
Repetition emphasizing the desire to see the person once more.
See you again
-Or is this the end
Suggesting the possibility of the relationship's demise.
The end
-Oh it's awful
Reiterating the terrible emotional state.
Awfully sweet
Describing the sweetness of the situation despite its negative impact.
That you did this to me
Expressing surprise or disappointment in the person's actions.
That you could do this to me
