Answer Me, My Love
Yearning Echoes: Unraveling Love's Unanswered Plea
Lyrics
Answer me
Expressing a plea for a response
Oh, my love
Endearment, addressing the beloved
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Pondering wrongdoing and seeking clarification
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Asking for an explanation of how the love was lost
Please answer me, sweetheart
Reiterating the plea for a response with affectionate language
You were mine yesterday
Referencing a past when the speaker and the beloved were together
I believed that love was here to stay
Expressing a belief in the permanence of love
Won't you tell me where I've gone astray
Seeking guidance on where the relationship went wrong
Please answer me, my love
Reiterating the plea for a response with affectionate language
If you're happier without me
Accepting the possibility of the beloved being happier without the speaker
I'll try not to care
Expressing a willingness to try not to be affected if the beloved is happier without the speaker
But if you still think about me
Requesting the beloved to consider the speaker in their thoughts
Please listen to my prayer
Pleading for the beloved to listen to a heartfelt prayer
You must know I've been true
Asserting faithfulness and sincerity
Won't you say that we can start anew
Asking for a chance to start the relationship anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Turning to the beloved in sorrow and seeking support
Please answer me, my love
Reiterating the plea for a response with affectionate language
(If you're happier without me)
(Repeating acceptance of the beloved's potential happiness without the speaker)
(I'll try not to care)
(Repeating willingness not to care if the beloved is happier without the speaker)
But if you still think about me
Reiterating the request for the beloved to think about the speaker
Please listen to my prayer
Repeating the plea for the beloved to listen to a prayer
You must know (You must know)
(Repeating the assertion of faithfulness)
I've been true (I've been true)
(Repeating the claim of being true)
Won't you say that we can start anew
Reiterating the request for a fresh start in the relationship
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Repeating the turn to the beloved in sorrow and seeking support
Please answer me, my love
Reiterating the plea for a response with affectionate language
Answer me, my love
Final plea for a response and acknowledgment of love
