Since I Fell For You
ANDY BEY & THE BEY SISTERS Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you just give love
And never get love
You'd better let love depart
I know it's so, and yet I know
I can't get you out of my heart

You made me leave my happy home
You took my love and now you're gone

Since I fell for you

Love brings such misery and pain
I guess I'll never be the same
Since I fell for you

Well, it's too bad
And it's too sad
But I'm in love with you
You love me, then you snub me
But what can I do?
I'm so in love with you

I guess I'll never see the light
I get the blues most every night

Since I fell for you
Since I fell for you

Line by Line Meaning

When you just give love
If you give love freely without expecting love in return

And never get love
And you don't receive love back

You'd better let love depart
It's better to let go of that love

I know it's so, and yet I know
I understand it's true, but still

I can't get you out of my heart
I have deep feelings for you that I can't get rid of

You made me leave my happy home
You caused me to abandon my joyful life

You took my love and now you're gone
You received my love but then left me

Since I fell for you
Since I developed feelings for you

Love brings such misery and pain
Being in love can cause great sadness and suffering

I guess I'll never be the same
I don't think I can ever be the way I was before

Since I fell for you
Since I developed feelings for you
