Soulful Longing: Unveiling the Heart's Cry in 'Body and Soul'
Lyrics
My heart is sad and lonely
Expressing deep sadness and loneliness in the speaker's heart.
For you I sigh, for you dear only
The speaker sighs and expresses devotion exclusively to the person addressed.
Why haven't you seen it

I'm all for you body and soul
Declaring complete dedication to the addressed person, both physically and emotionally.
I spend my days in longing
Describing the speaker's days filled with yearning and questioning the reasons for being mistreated.
And wondering why it's me you're wronging

I'm all for you body and soul

I can't believe it
Expressing disbelief at the situation.
It's hard to conceive it

That you'd turn away romance
Expressing a desire for another chance to prove the depth of feelings.
Are you pretending
Questioning if the addressed person is pretending.
It looks like the ending
Suggesting that the relationship seems to be reaching its end.
Unless I could have just one more chance to prove, dear
Yearning for an opportunity to demonstrate love once again.
My life a wreck you're making

I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul

My life a wreck you're making
