Lyrics

My heart is sad and lonely

My heart is filled with sorrow and isolation.

For you I sigh, for you dear only

I express deep yearning and longing solely for you.

Why haven't you seen it?

Why haven't you noticed or acknowledged my feelings?

I'm all for you body and soul

I am completely devoted to you both physically and emotionally.


I spend my days in longing

My days are filled with aching desire and wondering about the cause.

And wondering why

I ponder the reasons behind your mistreatment of me.

It's me you're wronging

You are causing harm to me, and it bewilders me.

I tell you I mean it

I want you to understand that I sincerely mean what I say.

I'm all for you body and soul

My commitment to you encompasses both my physical and emotional being.


I can't believe it

I find it hard to accept or believe the current situation.

It's hard to conceive it

The situation is difficult to comprehend or grasp.

That you'd turn away romance

It's surprising that you would reject the idea of romance.

Are you pretending?

Are you feigning or pretending not to care?

Looks like the ending

It seems like our relationship is coming to an end.

Unless I could have one more chance to prove

Unless I am given another opportunity to prove myself to you.

Dear, my life's a wreck you're making

My life is in turmoil because of the distress you are causing.

You know that I'm yours for just the taking

You have the power to take and control me completely.

I'd gladly surrender body and soul

I am willing to give up everything—myself entirely—for you.
