I'm Losing You
Love's Crossroads: Murray Head's Emotional Journey in 'I'm Losing You'
Lyrics
Here in some stranger's room
Feeling out of place in a stranger's room
Late in the afternoon
It's late in the day
What am I doing here at all?
Questioning the reason for being in this situation
Ain't no doubt about it
Confidently acknowledging the situation
I'm losing you
Expressing the realization of losing the person
Somehow the wires have crossed
Suggesting a breakdown in communication
Communication's lost
Acknowledging the loss of communication
Can't even get you on the telephone
Frustration over the inability to reach the person by phone
Just got to shout about it
Feeling the need to express the situation loudly
I'm losing you
Reiterating the sense of losing the person
Here in the valley of indecision
Being in a state of uncertainty
I don't know what to do
Expressing confusion and indecision
I feel you slipping away
Noticing the person slipping away emotionally
I feel you slipping away
Repeating the feeling of the person slipping away
I'm losing you
Reaffirming the realization of losing the person
I'm losing you
Repeating the acknowledgment of losing the person
You say you're not getting enough
Partner expressing dissatisfaction in the relationship
But I remind you of all that bad stuff
Reminding the partner of past issues
So what the hell am I supposed to do?
Expressing confusion about how to handle the situation
Just put a band-aid on it?
Questioning the effectiveness of simple solutions
And stop the bleeding now
Suggesting the need for a more substantial solution
Stop the bleeding now
Repeating the need to address the problem seriously
I know I hurt you then
Acknowledging past mistakes and causing hurt
But that was way back when
Clarifying that these mistakes were in the past
And well, do you still have to carry that cross?
Asking if the partner is still holding onto past grievances
Don't want to hear about it
Expressing unwillingness to discuss the past
I'm losing you
Reiterating the sense of losing the person
I'm losing you
Repeating the acknowledgment of losing the person
