"Go Away, Little Girl" is a song originally written for popular American singer Steve Lawrence in 1962. However, David Hasselhoff also recorded a cover of the song in 1993. The song tells the story of a man who is in a committed relationship with someone else, but finds himself tempted by another woman, represented as the "little girl" in the lyrics. Despite acknowledging her sweetness and attraction, he realizes that he must resist the temptation and stay faithful to his current partner. The lyrics convey a sense of inner conflict and struggle as the man grapples with his feelings towards the "little girl." He knows that being alone with her or letting their lips meet would betray his commitment and loyalty to his significant other. The repetition of the plea for the girl to go away emphasizes his desperation to distance himself from the temptation. The protagonist acknowledges that being near the girl makes it harder for him to resist her, and he fears the consequences of giving in to his desires. He knows it would complicate his existing relationship and likely lead to heartache for all parties involved. Ultimately, he begs the girl to leave before he loses his self-control and begs her to stay, which would further complicate matters. The song captures the universal struggle of loyalty and fidelity, highlighting the internal battle one may face when faced with temptation. The lyrics carry a sense of melancholy and regret, emphasizing the commitment to staying true to one's chosen partner.
