Lonely Girl
Ida Corr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
to take a deep breath on her first day of her life
Couldn't open her eyes needed help
to find the place of milky ways
Mamma's eyes watching every move
Feeling overwhelmed with pride
and a celebration of her creation
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
I don't wanna be left alone
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
No I don't wanna be left alone
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
Then a couple of years went by
not a second wasted in their relation
Baby able to sit by the table
and poor up the milk
and put the butter on her bagle
With a blink of an eye the bags are packed
the cap's arrived it just on time
Baby's gotta fly and mamma starts to cry
This is goodbye
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
I don't wanna be left alone
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
No I don't wanna be left alone
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
I cry
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
I cry
It hurts so bad it hurts so bad
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
I don't wanna be left alone
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
No I don't wanna be left alone
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
I don't wanna be left alone
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
No I don't wanna be left alone
I don't wanna be a lonely girl
'Cause it hurts so bad it hurts so bad
The lyrics to Ida Corr's song Lonely Girl tell the story of a mother and daughter's bond from the day the daughter was born up until she has to leave home. The lyrics start with the newborn girl struggling to breathe and open her eyes, with her mother helplessly watching over her. The mother experiences overwhelming pride as she celebrates the creation of her child. The chorus repeatedly expresses the daughter's fear of being left alone and how it hurts her so bad, hinting towards the possibility of her leaving home. The lyrics then fast forward a couple of years, with the daughter now grown up enough to pour milk and put butter on her bagel. The song ends with the daughter leaving, causing both her and her mother to cry as they say goodbye.
The song's message is very relatable to anyone who has left home or been left behind. The lyrics capture the pain and longing of missing someone who is no longer there. The mother-daughter relationship depicted in the song is very tender and affectionate, with the mother always watching over her daughter protectively.
