For Once in My Life
Love's Betrayal: A Heart's Journey Through Loneliness
Lyrics
How can i feel so lonely when I hold your hand
Expressing confusion and sadness despite physical closeness.
Am I the one and only lonely in this land
Questioning if the speaker is the sole lonely person in their surroundings.
I can´t believe that we could ever be apart
Expressing disbelief at the idea of being separated from the loved one.
I always held you close beside me
Highlighting the past closeness between the speaker and the loved one.
Even when you didn´t guide me
Even when not guided, the speaker kept the loved one close.
We we´re so much more than just friends
Recalling a deeper connection beyond friendship.
For once in my life, I gave away my heart
Expressing a significant gesture of giving away one's heart.
But time after time, you tore it apart, honey
Acknowledging repeated heartbreaks over time.
Day after day i begged you to stay
Describing the persistent pleas for the loved one to stay.
It wasn´t me who did surrender
Clarifying that it wasn't the speaker who surrendered in the relationship.
How i want you warm and tender
Expressing a desire for warmth and tenderness from the loved one.
Now i have to find my way alone
Acknowledging the necessity of finding one's path alone now.
So many memories coming right up in my head
Reflecting on a flood of memories in the speaker's mind.
So many days i wondered why you stayed in bed
Wondering why the loved one stayed in bed on many days.
There was a time when we were young and careless free
Recalling a time of carefree and youthful love.
When i held you close beside me
Reiterating the past closeness and love between the speaker and the loved one.
And you told me that you love me
Recalling verbal expressions of love from the loved one.
Oh how i want you back again
Expressing a strong desire to have the loved one back in the speaker's life.
I might been blind, but at this time, I need you here
Admitting to past blindness but currently expressing a need for the loved one's presence.
until forever
Stating a desire for the loved one's presence until eternity.
For once in my life...
Repeating the significant act of giving away one's heart, possibly indicating longing for a similar connection.
How can i feel so lonely when i hold your hand
Reiterating the paradox of feeling lonely despite physical proximity.
I have tried so hard to reach you
Expressing efforts made to reach the loved one.
And I did so much to please you
Highlighting the speaker's attempts to please the loved one.
Still I am standing here alone
Expressing the current state of standing alone despite efforts.
For once in my life...
Repeating the longing expressed earlier in the song.
