Lover, Lover
Longing in Melody: Unraveling the Heartache of Marty Robbins' 'Lover, Lover'
Lyrics
Who can I count on if I can't count on you
Expressing a sense of reliance and questioning trust in the listener.
Who can I turn to if I can't turn to you
Continuing to seek support and turning to someone for help and guidance.
Who can I cling to if I can't cling to you
Desiring a close connection and searching for emotional support.
Who can I sing to if I can't sing to you
Yearning for a person to share joys and sorrows, emphasizing the importance of a specific individual.
Lover, you've left me alone in a world with no gladness
Expressing loneliness and a lack of happiness after the departure of a loved one.
I'm all alone in a world where there's nothing but sadness
Highlighting the emotional void and sadness experienced in the absence of the lover.
Lover, I pray that the angel of mercy will find me
Expressing a plea for divine intervention and relief from emotional pain.
And take away all of the pain and the chains that bind me
Requesting liberation from emotional burdens and the constraints that are affecting the speaker.
Lover, lover come back to me
Pleading for the return of the lover and the restoration of a meaningful connection.
Thoughts that I shouldn't keep, thoughts that invade my sleep,
Acknowledging intrusive thoughts related to the lover's involvement with another person.
You with another man, has numbed my brain
Describing the impact of the lover's actions on the speaker's mental state.
My heart is running wild, it's acting like a child
Comparing the emotional turmoil to a wild and unrestrained reaction, akin to a child's behavior.
Jealousy runs so deep inside my veins
Revealing the intensity of jealousy and its profound effect on the speaker's emotions.
Lover, you've left me alone in a world with no gladness
Reiterating the sense of loneliness and lack of joy without the lover's presence.
I'm all alone in a world where there's nothing but sadness
Emphasizing the prevailing sadness in the absence of the lover, reinforcing the emotional impact.
Lover, I pray that the angel of mercy will find me
Repeating the plea for mercy and deliverance from emotional pain, seeking a divine resolution.
And take away all of the pain and the chains that bind me
Continuing the request for relief from emotional burdens and constraints.
Lover, lover come back to me
Reiterating the plea for the lover's return, underscoring the longing for reconciliation.
Come back to me
Concluding with a direct appeal for the lover to come back, expressing a deep desire for reunion.
