Wild Side of Life
Lost Love's Lure: A Journey to the Wild Side of Life
Lyrics
Well, you wouldn't read my letters if I wrote you
Expressing frustration that the recipient doesn't read the letters.
You asked me not to call you on the phone
Acknowledging the request not to be called, respecting boundaries.
Well, there is something I've been waiting for to tell you
Implying anticipation to share something important.
So I wrote it in the word of this song
Choosing to convey the message through the lyrics of a song.
Now, the glamor of the gay nightlife has lured you
Noting the allure of the glamorous and lively nightlife.
To the places where the wine and liquor flow
Describing the atmosphere where alcohol is abundant.
Well, you went to be somebody else's baby
Indicating the decision to be with someone else.
And forget the truest love you'll ever know
Suggesting the abandonment of a genuine and deep love.
I never knew there where honky-tonk angels
Expressing ignorance about the existence of certain temptations.
Oh, I might have know you'd never make a wife
Realizing that the person might not be suitable for a committed relationship.
Now, you gave up the only one that ever loved you
Highlighting the abandonment of the one who truly cared.
And went back to that wild side of life
Returning to a wild and carefree lifestyle.
Well, the glamour of the gay night life has lured you
Reiterating the lure of the glamorous nightlife.
To the places where the wine and liquor flow
Emphasizing the presence of alcohol in these tempting places.
Well, you went to be some body else's baby
Confirming the choice to be with someone else.
And forget the truest love you'll ever know
Repeating the idea of forsaking true love for a fleeting experience.
I never knew there where honky-tonk angels
Reflecting on the realization that the person is not an ideal partner.
Oh, I might have know you'd never make a wife
Acknowledging that the person might not be fit for marriage.
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
Stating the abandonment of the one who truly loved.
And went back to that wild side of life
Returning to the wild and unrestrained side of life.
I never knew there were honky-tonk angels
Repeating the theme of the existence of tempting influences.
Oh, I might have know you'd never make a wife
Acknowledging the likelihood of the person not being a suitable spouse.
Now, you gave up the only one that ever loved you
Highlighting the abandonment of the one who truly cared.
Oh, and went back to that wild side of life
Reiterating the return to a wild and carefree lifestyle.
