With One Look
Unveiling the Soul's Symphony: With One Look by Shirley Bassey
Lyrics
They don't want me anymore
Feeling rejected, as others no longer want the speaker.
They all say I'm through
People believe the speaker's career or relevance is over.
Well, it's time they knew
Expressing the need for others to realize the speaker's capabilities.
With one look, I can break your heart
The speaker claims the power to emotionally affect someone with just a look.
With one look, I play every part
Asserting the ability to play various roles with a single gaze.
I can make your sad heart sing
Claiming the power to bring joy or happiness with a look.
With one look, you'll know all you need to know
Insinuating that a single look can convey everything about the speaker.
With one smile, I'm the girl next door
Expressing versatility, being both approachable and desirable.
Or the love that you've hungered for
Claiming to fulfill the romantic desires of others.
When I speak, it's with my soul
Stating that the speaker's words are deeply connected to their inner self.
I can play any role
Asserting the ability to adapt and perform various roles.
No words can tell the stories my eyes tell
Highlighting the expressive power of the speaker's eyes.
Watch me when I frown, you can't write that down
Emphasizing the inability to capture the speaker's emotions in writing.
You know I'm right, it's there in black and white
Asserting the correctness of the speaker's statements, evident in written form.
When I look your way, you'll hear what I say
Claiming that the spoken words convey a profound meaning when directed.
Yes, with one look, I put your words to shame
Boasting that a single look surpasses the power of spoken words.
Just one look sets the screen aflame
Describing the captivating effect of the speaker's gaze.
Silent music starts to play
Imagining the start of a powerful emotional experience with a look.
One tear from my eye makes the whole world cry
Claiming the ability to evoke universal emotions with a tear.
With one look, they'll forgive the past
Suggesting that a single look can make others forgive past mistakes.
They'll rejoice, I've returned at last
Anticipating a joyous reception upon the speaker's return.
To my people in the dark
Referring to the audience or fans in the darkness of uncertainty.
Still out there in the dark
Emphasizing the enduring presence of the audience despite challenges.
Silent music starts to play
Reiterating the idea of evoking emotions through a silent gaze.
With one look, you'll know all you need to know
Reiterating that a single look reveals everything about the speaker.
With one look, I'll ignite a blaze
Claiming the power to spark enthusiasm and passion with a look.
I'll return to my glory days
Expressing the desire to return to a glorious past through a gaze.
They'll say, Norma's back at last
Anticipating recognition and acclaim for the speaker's return.
This time I'm staying, I'm staying for good
Declaring a commitment to stay and succeed this time.
I'll be back where I was born to be
Expressing a sense of belonging to the place of birth.
With one look, I'll be me
Claiming that a single look defines the essence of the speaker.
