You Can Have Her
Love Lost and Lessons Learned
Lyrics
Well you can have her, I don't want her
Expressing a willingness to let go of the woman in question.
She didn't loved me anyway
Asserting that she didn't truly love the speaker.
She only wanted someone to play with
Indicating that she sought companionship without genuine emotional involvement.
But all I wanted was a love to stay
Highlighting the speaker's desire for a lasting and meaningful love.
When you're stuck with the wrong woman
Reflecting on the challenges of being with the wrong partner.
There ain't that much that you can do
Conveying a sense of helplessness when stuck in an undesirable relationship.
You just dig a hole and crawl right in it
Using metaphorical language to describe feeling overwhelmed or defeated.
Then you pull the ground right over you
Suggesting withdrawal and a desire to escape from the difficulties of the relationship.
Well you can have her...
Reiterating the willingness to let go of the woman.
The girl I love she upped and left me
Sharing the speaker's experience of being abandoned by the woman he loved.
She ran away with my best friend
Revealing that she left the speaker for his best friend.
Comes home at night for just for an hour
Describing her infrequent and brief visits to the speaker.
When daylight comes, she's gone again
Emphasizing her tendency to disappear when daylight arrives.
Well life without love is mighty empty
Commenting on the emptiness of life without love.
But confession is good for your soul
Suggesting that confessing emotions is beneficial for personal well-being.
I'd rather have love for just an hour
Expressing a preference for short-lived love over worldly possessions.
Than have the world and all of its gold
Contrasting the value of love with material wealth.
Well you can have her...
Repeating the willingness to part ways with the woman.
Now you can have her...
Finalizing the decision to let the woman go.
