Bewitched
T.V. Themes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's a fool and don't I know it
But a fool can have her charms
I'm in love and don't I show it
Like a babe in arms

Love's the same old situation
Lately I've not slept a wink
Since this crazy situation
Has me on the blink

I'm wild again, beguiled again
A whimpering, simpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I

Couldn't sleep, wouldn't sleep
Love came and told me, shouldn't sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I

I lost my heart, but what of it
She is cold I agree
She might laugh, but I love it
Although the laugh's on me

I'll sing to her, bring spring to her




And long, for the day when I'll cling to her
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the song "Bewitched" by T.V. Themes perfectly capture the overwhelming feeling of falling in love, even when you know it might not be the best idea. The opening lines of the song acknowledge that the singer is aware that the object of their affection is not necessarily the wisest choice, but despite this, they find themselves drawn to their "charms" nonetheless. The singer then laments their lack of sleep due to the "crazy situation" of being in love with this person, and describes feeling like a "whimpering, simpering child."


The chorus of the song repeats the title phrase "Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I," which aptly encapsulates the emotional turmoil that falling in love can bring. The second verse of the song acknowledges that the object of the singer's affection is not necessarily reciprocating their feelings, but despite this, they are still in love with her. The singer describes being willing to do anything to win her over, singing to her, bringing spring to her, and longing for the day when he can "cling" to her.
