This song is a poignant reflection on the highs and lows of love and its aftermath. It begins with an intense passion (“She set my soul on fire”) but quickly transitions to the pain of heartbreak (“Too late, I’m through with her, she’s gone”), the vivid picture of the emotional impact of losing someone dear, likening it to a sudden storm that leaves the protagonist alone. There’s a try at a resolve to move forward (“Let’s face the week, and I’ll be your life”), accompanied by a sense of self-assurance (“My feeling, man, I’ll be this guy”), but then we find that it is a bittersweet reminiscence of the lost love.
“She” by The Mighty Manfred and The Wonderdogs Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
She
Set my soul on fire
My girl
All about the desire
In love
Everlasting love
[Bridge]
Too late
I’m through with her
She’s gone
Hit me like thunder
She sent me
Into a quiet somber
[Verse 2]
Let’s face the week
And I’ll be your life
My feeling
Man, I’ll be this guy
[Verse 3]
She
Is like a worldy girl
She’s so fun
She’s from another world
I praise the lord
She will never leave me
[Outro]
Because of her
I achieve tranquility
Because of her
I achieve tranquility
Because of her
I achieve tranquility
Because of her
I achieve tranquilit
