Body and Soul
Yearning Devotion in 'Body and Soul' by Marcel Zanini
Lyrics
My heart is sad and lonely
Expressing sadness and loneliness in the heart.
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Expressing deep sighs and longing specifically for the person addressed.
Why haven't you seen it
Questioning why the addressed person hasn't noticed the singer's feelings.
I'm all for you body and soul
Declaring a complete devotion, both physically and emotionally.
I spend my days in longing
Describing the singer's days spent in intense yearning.
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
Expressing confusion about why the addressed person is treating the singer wrongly.
I tell you I mean it
Affirming the sincerity of the previous statements.
I'm all for you body and soul
Reiterating the complete dedication to the addressed person.
I can't believe it
Expressing disbelief in the situation.
It's hard to conceive it
Highlighting the difficulty in accepting the circumstances.
That you'd turn away romance
Conveying surprise at the rejection of romantic advances.
Are you pretending
Pondering if the addressed person is pretending or not genuine.
It looks like the ending
Suggesting that the relationship seems to be approaching its end.
Unless I could have just one more chance to prove, dear
Expressing a desire for another opportunity to prove the depth of feelings.
My life a wreck you're making
Describing the impact on the singer's life caused by the addressed person.
You know I'm yours for just the taking
Affirming the singer's availability for the taking, emphasizing surrender.
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
Reiterating the willingness to give oneself entirely, both physically and emotionally.
My life a wreck you're making
Repeating the idea of the singer's life being in disarray due to the addressed person.
You know I'm yours for the very taking
Restating the singer's availability for the taking, emphasizing surrender once again.
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
Reaffirming the complete dedication and readiness to give oneself entirely.
