Feelings
Dobie Gray Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feelings,
Nothing more than feelings,
Trying to forget my feelings of love,
Tear drops rolling down on my face
Trying to forget my feelings of love,

Feelings, for my life,I have feelings
I wish I've never met you girl
You'll never come again

Feelings oh oh feelings oh oh oh feelings
Again in my arms,

Feelings, feelings like I never lost you
Feelings like I never have you again in my heart

Feelings nothing more than feelings
Trying to forget my feelings of love





Feelings ohoh feelings
Feelings ohohoh feelings again in my heart
