Lyrics
Goodbye romance can't take a chance
Expressing farewell to romance due to the unwillingness to risk emotional pain.
On love's painful games
Referring to the challenges and hurtful aspects of love.
I've called too many times on a sweetheart tree
Describing repeated attempts at finding love, perhaps with little success.
Lady lost now I count the cost
Acknowledging the losses experienced in love and assessing the emotional toll.
Nothing seems to change
Expressing frustration at the lack of positive change despite efforts.
I've called too many times on the sweetheart tree
Continuing to emphasize repeated attempts at finding love, possibly without success.
Too many times
Reiterating the frequency of unsuccessful attempts at love.
Ooh love you made a fool out of me
Expressing feeling foolish and deceived by love in numerous instances.
You won again
Acknowledging defeat in the face of love's challenges.
So lovin' set me free
Suggesting a desire to be liberated from the pain caused by love.
I need some time to change my mind
Expressing the need for time to reconsider before attempting love again.
Before I try again
Highlighting the hesitation to engage in love after previous disappointments.
I've been too many times to the sweetheart tree
Recounting numerous unsuccessful experiences at the "sweetheart tree," a metaphor for seeking love.
Some go some then lay in tow
Describing the varied experiences of individuals in love, some successful, others not.
But love just don't come free
Stressing that love comes with a cost and isn't easily attained.
I've called too many names on the sweetheart tree
Continuing to emphasize calling out names on the "sweetheart tree" without success.
Too many times
Reiterating the frequency of unsuccessful attempts at love.
Ooh love you made a fool out of me
Expressing feeling foolish and deceived by love in numerous instances.
You won again
Acknowledging defeat in the face of love's challenges.
So lovin' set me free
Suggesting a desire to be liberated from the pain caused by love.
Too many times
Reiterating the frequency of unsuccessful attempts at love.
Ooh love you made a fool out of me
Expressing feeling foolish and deceived by love in numerous instances.
You won again
Acknowledging defeat in the face of love's challenges.
So lovin' set me free
Suggesting a desire to be liberated from the pain caused by love.
Goodbye romance can't take a chance
Repeating the sentiment of bidding farewell to romance due to the fear of love's painful games.
On love's painful games
Reiterating the unwillingness to take a chance on love's painful games.
I've called too many names on the sweetheart tree
Emphasizing the repetition of calling out names on the "sweetheart tree," suggesting a cycle of unsuccessful attempts.
