You're No Good
Breaking Free from Heartbreak: Linda Ronstadt's 'You're No Good' Revelation
Lyrics
Feeling better now that we're through
Expressing relief and improvement after ending the relationship.
Feeling better 'cause I'm over you
Continued sense of well-being due to being free from the ex-partner.
I learned my lesson, it left a scar
Acknowledging a learned lesson from the past relationship, indicated by a lasting emotional mark.
Now I see how you really are
Realizing the true nature of the ex-partner.
You're no good
Reinforcing the assertion that the ex-partner is not a good person for the speaker.
You're no good
-You're no good
-Baby, you're no good
-I'm gonna say it again
Reiteration of the previous statements about the ex-partner's negative qualities.
You're no good
-You're no good
-You're no good
-Baby, you're no good
-I broke a heart that's gentle and true
Expressing remorse for breaking a sincere and genuine heart over someone undeserving.
Well, I broke a heart over someone like you
-I'll beg his forgiveness on bended knee
-I wouldn't blame him if he said to me
-You're no good
Reaffirming the judgment that the ex-partner is not good for the speaker.
You're no good
-You're no good
-Baby, you're no good
-I'm gonna say it again
Repetition of the declaration that the ex-partner is no good and not suitable for a relationship.
You're no good
-You're no good
-You're no good
-Baby, you're no good
-I'm telling you now, baby, and I'm going my way
Declaring independence and determination to move forward without the ex-partner.
Forget about you, baby, 'cause I'm leaving to stay
-You're no good
Restating the negative evaluation of the ex-partner's character.
You're no good
-You're no good
-Baby, you're no good
-I'm gonna say it again
Continued emphasis on the unsuitability of the ex-partner and the decision to break free.
You're no good
-You're no good
-You're no good
-Baby, you're no good
-Oh, oh, no
Final emphasis on the judgment that the ex-partner is no good.
You're no good
-You're no good
-You're no good
-Baby, you're no good
