There Goes Another Love Song
The Outlaws Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thoughts I am thinkin' are the reason so
I try to remember without talkin' to myself
Things that I've said or maybe things that I felt about you
Sittin' in a corner of a crowded bar room
People all around me and I still feel alone
Just when I know I'm gonna break down and cry
There goes another love song
Someone singin' about me again
There goes another love song
Now I need more than a friend
Lonesome and lonely and far from my home
Tryin' to get back to where I know I belong
Wishin' and a-hopin' I was already there
I just heard a voice it whispered in my ear, singin'
There goes another love song
Someone singin' about me again
There goes another love song
Now I need it more than a friend
Do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
There goes another love song
Someone singin' about me again
There goes another love song
Now I need it more than a friend
I said
There goes another love song
Someone singin' about me again, oh no
There goes another love song
Now I need more than a friend

The singer expresses a desire to find their way back home and a longing to be with the person they love. The song's chorus emphasizes the singer's need for more than just a friend and the repeated "do do do" verses create a haunting echo that rings through the listener's mind. The song's overall theme is about the relatable feeling of being lost and seeking comfort in music to heal emotional wounds and bring feelings to the surface.

Sittin' in a corner of a crowded bar room
Seated in a corner of a congested drinking establishment
People all around me and I still feel alone

Just when I know I'm gonna break down and cry
Right before I'm about to burst into tears
Someone played a tune that dried the tear from my eye
Someone played a melody that halted my tears
There goes another love song
Yet another lyric about heartbreak
Someone singin' about me again
Once again, my story is being sung for all to hear
Now I need more than a friend
I require companionship beyond platonic boundaries
Lonesome and lonely and far from my home
Feeling alone and homesick while being far away
Tryin' to get back to where I know I belong
Attempting to return to a place where I feel at home
Wishin' and a-hopin' I was already there
Desiring and hoping that I had already reached my destination
I just heard a voice it whispered in my ear, singin'
I heard a voice whispering, singing
Do, do, do, do, do
Sounds with no specified meaning
There goes another love song
Once again, a song about heartbreak
I said
I spoke
Someone singin' about me again, oh no
Another person singing about my love woes, oh dear
Now I need more than a friend
I crave for a deeper connection with someone

One of the most underrated bands of all time. The guitar work is phenomenal.
@sdgakatbk
They were a great band. As to Southern bands, I put them just behind the pre-plane crash Skynyrd. I'm from the north, but 70s Southern rock was GREAT!!
@terrycrotts2522
