Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I treated you bad
And wrong my dear
And girl since
Since you been away
Dont'cha know I
Sit around
With my head hangin' down
Who's lovin' you
I, I, I, I
Should have never ever
Ever made you cry
And girl since
Since you been gone
Dont'cha know I
Sit around
With my head hangin' down
And I wonder
Who's lovin' you
Life without love
Is oh, so lonely
I don't think
I don't think
I'm gonna make it
All my life (all my life)
All my life, yeah (all my life)
Belongs to you only
Come on and take it girl
Come on and take it
Because
All
All I can do
All I can do
Since you been gone is cry
And you, oooh
Will never wonder
And worry your pretty little head
About what I do
Dont'cha know I
Sit around
With my head hangin' down
And I wonder
Who's lovin' you
The lyrics to "Who Are You" by V. Benedetti D. Krall M. Oster C. Sprenger A. Canonico are a classic tale of lost love and regret. The singer is reflecting on the mistakes they made when they had their lover and how they treated them poorly. They admit to making them cry and now that they are gone, the singer is left wondering who is loving their ex now.
The tone of the song is melancholic, with a sense of longing and sadness. The repetition of the phrase "with my head hanging down" emphasizes the sense of defeat the singer is feeling. The chorus, with its pleading "come on and take it girl," shows that the singer realizes the error of their ways and wants their lover back.
