Body and Soul
Melancholy Serenade: Unveiling the Depths of Longing in 'Body and Soul'
Lyrics
My heart is sad and lonely
Expressing sadness and loneliness in the heart.
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Sighing and longing exclusively for the person addressed.
Why haven't you seen it
Questioning why the addressed person hasn't noticed the feelings.
I'm all for you body and soul
Declaring complete dedication and commitment, both physically and emotionally.
I spend my days in longing
Spending days in yearning and contemplating the reasons for being mistreated.
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
Asserting sincerity in the emotional expression.
I tell you I mean it
Reiterating the complete dedication despite the perceived wrongdoing.
I'm all for you body and soul
Reaffirming total commitment, physically and emotionally.
I can't believe it
Expressing disbelief in the current situation.
It's hard to conceive it
Highlighting the difficulty in accepting the situation.
That you'd turn away romance
Addressing the turning away from romantic involvement.
Are you pretending
Questioning if the addressed person is pretending.
It looks like the ending
Suggesting that the situation appears to be 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 the impact on the speaker's life due to the addressed person's actions.
You know I'm yours for just the taking
Affirming availability and willingness to be taken by the addressed person.
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
Expressing a willingness to surrender entirely, both physically and emotionally.
My life a wreck you're making
Repeating the impact on the speaker's life.
You know I'm yours for the very taking
Reiterating availability and willingness to be taken.
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
Affirming a complete surrender of self, both body and soul.
