Lyrics Breakdown

Well, I never knew I could want you darlin’
Oh, so much
Now that you’re gone, I dream of you
And your sweet touch

Cline delivered a wonderful rendition of “So Wrong.” She expressed her deep emotions while performing it. In was definitely in line with what the narrator felt upon writing this song. Looking at the words mentioned above gives us an idea that someone endures pain from heartbreak.

If I may ask you, is loving someone so much, wrong? Most of the people who love their beloved so much ended up with nothing. What I mean is the person who loved so much tends to forget to love themselves and that results in conflicts. Conflicts happen when there is no equality. A relationship won’t work if there is only one person holding onto it. Learn how to give and take. Love your partner the way you want and take with you the love you truly deserve.
