Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the love I need why did we part
Bewildered, has love, has love died dear
Wishing your heart could feel
What`s in my heart
Must I have sleepless night
And endless days
Without a spark I`m in the dark
Bewildered, I need your, I need your I need your guiding hand
I`ll never, no I`ll never understand
How you can love me, how you can love me
How you can love me, how you can love me
How you can love me and leave me Bewildered, bewidered
The song Bewildered by James Brown The Famous Flames is a heart-wrenching ballad about a man who is lost in love and cannot understand why his lover would leave him feeling so confused and betrayed. The opening line, "Bewildered, lost in a dream," sets the tone for the rest of the song as Brown's powerful vocals express his sense of disorientation and desperation. He cannot comprehend why his love has ended and why he is left feeling so lost and alone.
The chorus of the song repeats the word "bewildered" several times as Brown laments the loss of his love and the confusion it has caused him. He wishes that his former lover could feel what he feels and understand the pain that he is experiencing. He questions whether his love for her was not enough and why she would leave him in such a state.
The bridge of the song is particularly poignant as Brown declares, "Without a spark I'm in the dark." This line perfectly captures the feeling of being lost and alone after a relationship has ended unexpectedly. He begs for his lover to return and guide him through the darkness that he is feeling.
Overall, Bewildered is a beautiful and powerful song that perfectly captures the pain and confusion that can come with lost love. The emotion in James Brown's voice is palpable and adds to the already rich lyrics.

James Brown wasn't just a funky soul singer. This proves how good his blues-love voice is, the range and control is perfect and insane
@dianealexander7004
James Brown was a perfectionist. He could hear a wrong note, a missed beat, any mistake he heard it and he would fine a band member. His band was called The Famous Flames.. In one of his records you could here him say I gotcha. But if you didn't know it you think it a part of the song cause he incorporated it into the song.
