Nothin' Fancy
Timeless Love: Nothin' Fancy by Alan Jackson
Lyrics
No candle light, no wine
No need for romantic gestures like candlelight and wine
No plans and that’s just fine
Content with no elaborate plans
Just put your hand in mine
Simply holding hands is enough
Nothing fancy
Emphasizing simplicity and lack of extravagance
Don’t need no party dress,
No requirement for a special party dress
I like you just like this
Appreciating the partner in their natural state
Just like the night we met,
Recalling the simplicity of the night they first met
Nothing fancy
Reiterating the preference for simplicity
Girl, this is everything I’m looking for
Expressing contentment with the current relationship
There’s nothing you could do
Assuring the partner that there's nothing they could do to increase desire
To make me want you more
Affirming a high level of attraction
So I hope it’s still okay
Seeking confirmation that expressing love in a simple way is acceptable
That when I feel this way
Acknowledging the emotional state when love is felt strongly
"I love you" is all I say,
Declaring that a straightforward "I love you" is sufficient
Nothing fancy
Repeating the theme of simplicity in love
Girl, this is everything I’m looking for
Reiterating the satisfaction with the relationship
There’s nothing you could do
Stating that there's nothing the partner could do to increase attraction
To make me want you more
Confirming a high level of desire
So I hope it’s still okay
Seeking confirmation that expressing love in a simple way is acceptable (repeated)
That when I feel this way
Reiterating the emotional state when love is strongly felt (repeated)
"I love you" is all I say,
Declaring that a straightforward "I love you" is sufficient (repeated)
Nothing fancy
Final emphasis on the simplicity of expressing love
