The repetition of the line "sugar sugar I love you, sugar sugar I need you" is the main theme of the song, emphasizing the depth of love this person feels for their significant other. However, the lyrics also reveal a sense of unrequited love as the singer longs for their lover's loyalty and validation.
In the song, the singer tells their lover that they "would be the only, only man in my life," but they have found their love to be untrue. All their life seemingly depended on this person's love, but they have been let down. The singer urges their lover to make up their mind, as they cannot tolerate the constant flip-flopping in their relationship. Regardless of their partner's betrayal or indecisiveness, the singer's love will always be kind and true.
Overall, "Sugar Sugar" is a song about the fragility of love, and how trust and loyalty are crucial to making a relationship work. The repeated chorus reinforces the central theme of unwavering devotion despite disappointment.
