Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My baby, don't shut me out of your love
I cannot understand, why you said goodbye
And I don't know what to do
Without you by my side
And now nothing matters to me
And now nothing matters to me
It hurts and broke my heart
But I'm not a fool to wait for you again

My baby, don't shut me out of your love
Please don't close your heart to me, my love
I cannot understand, why you said goodbye
I can't comprehend why you decided to leave me
And I don't know what to do
I'm lost and unsure of how to proceed
Without you by my side
I feel incomplete without your presence
And now nothing matters to me
Without your love, nothing else holds significance to me
Your love was a dangerous game
Our relationship was risky and ended up hurting me
It hurts and broke my heart
The pain from our separation has shattered my heart
But I'm not a fool to wait for you again
I won't foolishly wait for you to come back into my life
