Lyrics
Have you found, since you've turned me down,
Asking if the person has found someone else since rejecting the speaker.
The one that you were searching for?
Inquiring if the person found the one they were looking for.
Are you glad that you made me sad,
Questioning whether the person is happy about causing the speaker's sadness.
For you know I vowed to love you ever more.
Expressing a commitment to love the person even more despite the rejection.
What did you have in mind,
Asking about the person's intentions when breaking the speaker's heart.
When you broke this heart of mine?
Seeking to understand the motive behind the heartbreak.
Are you laughing in my face?
Questioning whether the person finds amusement in the speaker's pain.
Darlin', what can I do,
Expressing helplessness in the face of the breakup.
When you tell me we are through?
Describing the impact of being told that the relationship is over.
You've left a wound, time can't erase.
Conveying that the emotional wound inflicted is enduring and cannot be forgotten with time.
Tell me, dear, are you satisfied,
Asking whether the person is content with being free and uncommitted.
To be footloose and fancy free?
Inquiring about the person's satisfaction with their current carefree state.
Is it power you want,
Wondering if the person desires power or is proud of their past actions.
Or the things you have done?
Questioning the motivation behind the person's choices and deeds.
What you've gained, I guess I'll never see.
Expressing uncertainty about understanding what the person has gained from their actions.
What did you have in mind,
Repeating the inquiry about the person's intentions when breaking the speaker's heart.
When you broke this heart of mine?
Reiterating the question about finding amusement in the speaker's pain.
Are you laughing in my face?
Repeating the sense of helplessness in the face of heartbreak.
Darlin', what can I do,
Emphasizing the impact of being told that the relationship is over.
When you tell me we are through?
Reiterating the enduring nature of the emotional wound.
You've left a wound, time can't erase.
Summarizing that the inflicted wound is permanent and won't fade with time.
