You know I love you
You know it's true
Give you all my love, babe
What more can I do?
Walking by myself
I hope you'll understand
I love ya, yes I love you
With my heart and soul
I wouldn't mistreat you
For my weight in gold
You know I love you
You know it's true
Give you all my love, babe
What more can I do?
Walking by myself
I hope you'll understand
I just want to be your lovin' man
Here we go!
Keep on walkin'!
You know I love you
You know it's true
I give you all my, babe
What more can I do?
I'm walking by myself
I hope you'll understand
I just want to be your lovin' man
I said I'm walking by myself
I hope you'll understand
I just want to be your lovin'
I just want to be your lovin'
I just want to be your lovin' man
That's right.
The lyrics to Savoy Brown's "Walking By Myself" are a heartfelt plea for love and understanding from a man deeply in love. The song starts off with the singer expressing his love for his significant other and vowing to give her all his love. However, he then goes on to say that he is "walking by myself," which brings a sense of longing and sadness to the lyrics. He wants his love to understand that he just wants to be her "lovin' man," and that he wouldn't mistreat her for anything in the world.
Throughout the song, the singer repeats these sentiments of love and devotion, but the repetition of "walking by myself" adds a layer of complexity to the lyrics, painting a picture of a man who is trying to be there for his love, but just can't seem to shake his sense of loneliness. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the singer repeating his desire to be his love's "lovin' man."
One interpretation of the song is that the singer is struggling with his own sense of independence and individuality within the confines of a romantic relationship. He wants to be his own person, but he also wants to be with the person he loves. This tension is reflected in the repeating line of "walking by myself," which suggests a kind of inner conflict between his desire to be alone and his desire for companionship.
