Your Cheatin' Heart
Heartache Unveiled: The Betrayal in Steve Lawrence's Melody
Lyrics
Your cheating heart will make you weep
Your unfaithful actions will lead to sorrow and tears.
You'll cry and cry and try to sleep
You will cry extensively and struggle to find solace in sleep.
But sleep won't come the whole night through
Sleep will elude you throughout the entire night.
Your cheating heart will tell on you
Your acts of infidelity will be revealed and expose you.
When tears come down like falling rain
As tears flow like rain, expressing deep emotional pain.
You'll toss around and call my name
You will restlessly toss around, calling out for the speaker.
You'll walk the floor the way I do
You will experience the same heartache, pacing the floor in distress.
Your cheating heart will tell on you
Your unfaithful actions will be exposed, similar to the speaker's experience.
Your cheating heart will pine some day
Eventually, your unfaithful heart will long for the love you discarded.
And crave the love you threw away
You will crave the affection that you once rejected.
The time will come when you'll be blue
A time will come when you feel melancholic and regretful.
Your cheating heart will tell on you
Your cheating ways will be exposed, adding to your blues.
When tears come down like falling rain
Tears will continue to fall, mirroring the speaker's earlier description.
You'll toss around and call my name
You'll be restless, calling out for the speaker in vain.
You'll walk the floor the way I do
You'll endure the same emotional turmoil, pacing the floor in sorrow.
Your cheating heart will tell on you
Just like the speaker's experience, your infidelity will come to light.
Your cheating heart is gonna tell on you
Your unfaithful heart will inevitably reveal your betrayal.
