Toward the end of the drama, he states that being without her is killing him emotionally and that he actually still loves her. After a final chorus, again using an impassioned falsetto, Prince launches into a brief but effective guitar solo which climaxes and ends the song. Guitar solos are a melodic passage section or entire piece of music written for an Electric guitar or an Acoustic guitar.
