Oh Gloria
Frank Ciampi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you spend all your time in his arms
It will truly be over now
So stop your frown
And I'll say goodbye
Oh Gloria

If you hold on to what you want to
Maybe you'll figure out in time
You're the crime
And I'll say goodbye
Oh Gloria

I never told you how
It was that made my life over time rewind
When you sing
Nah nah nah nah
If only you would give me one more day to try
Oh Gloria

If you ever try to say sorry
Baby you'll be mistaken of




Your broken love
And I'll say goodbye oh Gloria

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Frank Ciampi's song Oh Gloria seem to be a message to a woman named Gloria, who is in danger of losing her relationship due to her infidelity. The singer is warning her that if she continues to spend all her time in the arms of her lover, their relationship will truly be over. He encourages her to let go of whatever it is that she desires so badly, and to figure out in time that she is the one who is committing a crime against their relationship. He lovingly suggests to her that if she would only give him one more day to try, he may be able to make things right. However, he ultimately tells her that if she ever tries to apologize, it will be too late, and he will have to say goodbye.


The soft, gentle quality of the song gives it a melancholy, retrospective tone, almost as if the singer is looking back on a lost love. The "nah nah nah nah" refrain feels like a call to memory, as if the singer is recalling moments from their relationship that led them to this point. Overall, the lyrics are a moving and heartfelt plea for a desperate lover to see reason and save their relationship before it's too late.

Thank you so much for featuring Christina Grimmie at 8:30. She was a young musical talent who did more with a career which spanned just 7 years(2009-2016, than many of her peers still around. And Grimmie left us a legacy which to this day still inspires frands of all ages, all around the world.
