Don't Leave Me
Heartache's Echo: Love's Turmoil in 'Don't Leave Me'
Lyrics
(Please, please, please)
Expressing a strong plea or request for attention or assistance.
Woah, I had a dream last night
Describing a dream experienced the previous night.
When I awoke, I found myself crying
Upon waking up, the singer found themselves in tears.
I dreamed that the girl I loved told me our love was dying
The dream involved the revelation that the singer's romantic relationship was deteriorating.
Woah, she said, she said that she was falling, falling
The girl confessed to falling for a friend of the singer.
Falling for a buddy of mine
Emphasizing the seriousness of the girl's feelings for the friend.
And she said everyone knew, how could I be so blind
The girl questioned the singer's awareness of the situation, hinting at the apparent knowledge of others.
I woke up and called my baby, she said no matter how real it seemed
Upon waking, the singer immediately called their significant other to address the dream's impact.
She would always be mine and losing her was something that I had dreamed
The significant other reassured the singer that the dream was not reflective of reality, and their love was secure.
(Please, please, please)
Repetition of the plea, possibly indicating heightened emotion or urgency.
Oh, no! No no, please don't leave me baby
The singer urgently implores their partner not to leave.
If just a dream has made me cry
Acknowledging the emotional impact of a mere dream on the singer.
Well I know, I know if I lost you, I would surely die
Expressing the profound fear and devastation the singer would feel if their partner left.
A-don't leave me, don't leave me
A repeated plea for the partner not to leave.
A-don't leave me, please don't leave me
Reiteration of the intense desire for the partner to stay.
A-don't go now, a-don't go
An urgent request for the partner not to go at this critical moment.
A-don't go because I love you so
The singer emphasizes their love as a reason for the partner to stay.
Don't leave me, a-don't go now
A final plea, urging the partner not to leave.
A-don't go
A desperate request for the partner not to go.
