Since You've Been Gone
Eddie Peregrina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Since you've been gone
Loneliness surrounds me
You'll find me waiting here
Just in case you changed your mind

Give me a chance
Listen to my lonely heart
Beating fast for you
Since you've been gone

Yesterday I know
I've been crying over you
I can't stand it no more
To be left here all alone

Give me a chance
Listen to my lonely heart
Beating fast for you
Since you've been gone

Yesterday I know
I've been crying over you
I can't stand it no more
To be left here all alone

Give me a chance
Listen to my lonely heart
Beating fast for you
Since you've been gone





Beating fast for you
Since you've been gone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Eddie Peregrina's song "Since You've Been Gone" are a reflection of a lover's feelings of loneliness and desperation after the departure of the person they love. The opening lines, "Since you've been gone, loneliness surrounds me," aptly paint a picture of the singer's state of mind. The repeated refrain of "Give me a chance, listen to my lonely heart, beating fast for you" shows the singer's desire to reconnect with their loved one and emphasize the intensity of their feelings.


The singer is waiting in the hopes that the person who left may have a change of heart and come back to them. The reality of being left alone is unbearable, as expressed in the lines "I can't stand it no more to be left here all alone." Additionally, the line "Yesterday I know I've been crying over you" shows that the singer has been feeling this way for an extended period of time.


The song is a poignant expression of the pain of unrequited love, which has been a common theme in music throughout time. It conveys the message that losing someone you love can be a deeply painful experience, and that the absence of that person can leave a void that feels impossible to fill.

High school pa ako nang sumikat ang kantang ito ..1970's...until now pinapakinggan ko pa rin. Hindi nakakasawang pakinggan. Sana kayo rin. Salamat Eddie Peregrina sa napakagandang kanta at napakagandang boses mo.
