Lonely Fellow
Beres Hammond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
People laughing and keeping it real, yeah
It was just an ordinary party, yeah
Oh, but suddenly when you appeared
Searching gone in a different gear, yeah
No wonder they called you Miss Lovely
Lonely fellow, yeah
Lonely fellow
Save some of that for a lonely little fellow, yes
Will you come dance with me?
Will you dance with me?
I won′t spoil it 'cause I know the night distance long
And I know you wanna have your fun, yes
With the mood for familiar faces
Well, darling, just remember when you left me standing
′Cause I'll be in your way the next time you passing
Until you given, I'll be asking over again
Can you save some of that for a lonely little fellow, yes
Lonely fellow
Lonely fellow
Save some of that for a lonely little fellow, yes
Will you come dance with me?
When that love song starts playing
I know tonight is the night
I′ll be holding you close
And it will be that way forever
I see a little lonely brother in a bright little shirt
Trying impress on you how much is watch is
Expensive drinks for everybody, yes
Oh, it′s wise to wait 'til it′s dipsy
Can't judge you now it′s more too risky, yes
And I wouldn't want your little head to worry
Read my lips if you can hear me
Save some of that for a lonely little fellow, yes
Lonely fellow
Lonely fellow
Save some of that for a lonely little fellow, yes
Will you come dance with me?
Now, will you dance with me?
For me, the get-together was no big deal
People laughing and keeping it real, yeah
It was just ordinary party, yes
Oh, but suddenly when you appeared
Searching gone in a different gear
No wonder they call you Miss Lovely
Now can you save some of that for a lonely little fellow, yes
Lonely fellow
Lonely fellow
Save some of that for a lonely little fellow, yes
Now, will you dance with me?
When that love song starts playing
I know tonight is the night
I′ll be holding you close
And it will be that way
Forever and a long time
It's gonna be a long time
Never gonna let you go
The lyrics of Beres Hammond's song Lonely Fellow depict a man who feels out of place at a party where everyone seems to be having a great time. However, when he spots a beautiful woman who he calls Miss Lovely, he hopes that she could save some of her charm and company for him, a lonely fellow. The man understands that the woman might not be interested in him, but he still hopes that she will dance with him when a love song starts playing.
The song's theme is relatable as many people have experienced feeling lonely at a party or gathering, and the desire to connect with someone. The lyrics showcase the power of attraction, and sometimes the fear of rejection, as the man is apprehensive about asking the woman to dance. However, he chooses to take a chance and asks her to save some of her affection and time for him, regardless of the outcome. The song's upbeat rhythm gives the impression of hopefulness and a sense that things might work out for the lonely fellow.
