Song Meaning of “Do It Again” by Frances Ruffelle
Do It Again by Frances Ruffelle is a heart-stirring song that speaks of the complex and fragile nature of love. It tells the story of a relationship that is stuck in a loop where the same mistakes are being made over and over again.
The lyrics, and especially the chorus reflect a person’s relentless longing for the past. Despite the hurt, the fear, and the pain, the person still desires to go back to where they used to feel emotions of joy and happiness that come with loving and being loved. They recognize that this longing for the past is only a foolish dream, and that they need to make the changes that will help them heal. In the end, the person is questioning the chances of them getting their relationship with their partner back to the way it used to be, asking them if they can “play the same game, start it all over again”.
The message of the song is that when it comes to the matters of the heart, we can never be too sure. As hard as it may sometimes be to accept, some things in life are just out of our control. Nevertheless, there is always a chance for things to turn out better, and if we make the effort to move on and start again, we can achieve a state of peace and forgiveness.
