So Lonely
Yearning Echoes: Sonya Kitchell's Melancholic Journey in 'So Lonely'
Lyrics
It's been a long, a long, long day, oh why?
Expressing exhaustion after a prolonged and tiring day, questioning the reason behind it.
I get tired of hurrying to wait anyway, oh why?
Frustration with the paradox of rushing only to face waiting, questioning the purpose of the hurry.
I need a man to hold me in his loving arms
Desire for emotional support and intimacy, seeking comfort in a partner's embrace.
I need someone to enfold me, away from harm
Seeking someone to protect and shelter from danger or emotional distress.
Feeling so lonely, feeling so lonely
Reiterating a profound sense of isolation and emptiness.
Feeling so lonely, I could cry
Expressing the depth of loneliness, reaching a point of potential tears due to the intense isolation.
I met a man with eyes so blue, that I
Encountering a man with striking blue eyes, feeling a connection or vulnerability in his gaze.
I could've sworn he saw right through the lie
Suspecting that this man could perceive the truth beyond surface appearances.
I fell so hard when I stumbled into him
Experiencing a strong emotional attraction upon unexpectedly meeting this man.
He was a little too old, perhaps to bold
Feeling that the man might be too mature or daring for the situation.
Could it ever have really been?
Questioning the reality of the intense emotions experienced in that encounter.
Feeling so lonely, feeling so lonely
Continuing to emphasize an overwhelming sense of isolation and solitude.
I'm feeling so lonely, I could cry
Expressing the loneliness to such an extent that crying feels imminent.
Wake me, come on and shake me
Requesting to be awakened from a state of confusion or disorientation.
'Cause I'm stumbling in a dream
Feeling lost in a dream-like state, uncertain of reality.
I'm hazy, Lord, a little bit crazy, Lord
Admitting to feeling mentally clouded or slightly unstable.
And I don't know where I have been
Expressing confusion and not having a clear sense of direction or purpose.
It was nothing much, it was just a touch
Reflecting on a simple gesture that caused deep emotional pain.
But it tore me apart
Describing the profound impact of a seemingly insignificant action.
And I'm standing here and he's somewhere near
Feeling emotionally distant from someone who is physically nearby.
And I search with an aching heart
Searching desperately for emotional fulfillment despite heartache.
It's coming 'round that time of year where I
Reflecting on a time of year that intensifies the longing for a significant other.
I wish I had someone to call my dear, oh I
Expressing the desire for a romantic connection during a lonely time.
Will walk alone among the apple trees
Walking alone amidst reminders of lost love and longing for companionship.
Well, my true love has flown and he left, oh, he left me
Expressing the pain of a departed true love, feeling abandoned.
I'm feeling so lonely, I'm feeling awful lonely
Reiterating the profound and distressing feeling of being utterly alone.
Feeling so lonely, I could cry
Reinforcing the depth of loneliness, almost reaching a point of crying due to isolation.
