Sunday
Eddie Condon and His Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I ain' gonna walk that lonesome tear-stained floor
I never knew much about love
Till you walked into my heart
I wasn't happy without love
But at least I wasn't torn apart
On Saturday night you swear you're mine alone
Then Sunday arrives and you don't even phone
But I ain't gonna answer the door
I ain't gonna get those Sunday blues no more
These lyrics describe the newfound sense of happiness that the singer has found since they fell in love with someone. They proclaim that they will never again feel the sadness and loneliness that comes with the blues on Sundays. Before this person came into their life, they didn't have a great understanding of love, but now that they do, they are happier. Even though they were not happy before, they were not torn apart like they are when they don't hear from their love interest on Sundays. It seems that they feel neglected when the weekend ends and they don't receive any communication from this person. This feeling appears to have happened before since they expect the other to come back around but are convinced they won't give in to them again.
Line by Line Meaning
I ain't gonna get those Sunday blues no more
I won't feel depressed on Sundays anymore
I ain't gonna walk that lonesome tear-stained floor
I won't feel lonely and sad anymore
I never knew much about love
I didn't have much experience with love
Till you walked into my heart
Until you entered my life and made me feel loved
I wasn't happy without love
I wasn't truly content without love in my life
But at least I wasn't torn apart
But I wasn't completely broken and hurt without it
On Saturday night you swear you're mine alone
You promise on Saturday night that I'm the only one you want
Then Sunday arrives and you don't even phone
But when Sunday comes, you don't even call me
I know you're gonna come knockin'
I know you'll try to come back to me
But I ain't gonna answer the door
But I won't let you back in my life
I ain't gonna get those Sunday blues no more
I won't be sad and depressed on Sundays anymore
