Share Your Love With Me
Share Your Love: Aretha's Soulful Plea for Connection
Lyrics
It's an evil wind that blows no good, yeah
An unproductive situation can arise from a negative force.
It's a sad heart that won't love like I know it should
Feeling sorrowful when love isn't expressed as expected.
Oh, how lonesome (oh how lonesome)
Expressing deep loneliness.
You must be (you must be)
Highlighting the depth of loneliness experienced.
It's a shame (shame, shame)
Expressing disappointment or disapproval.
If you don't share your love with me
Emphasizing the importance of sharing love.
It's a heartache, yeah (it's a heartache)
Describing the pain of heartache.
When love is gone (baby, it's a heartache)
Heartache experienced after love is lost.
But it's bad (bad) and even sad (sad) oh later on
Describing the lingering pain and sadness after love ends.
And there's no one blinder than you won't see
Stating that one can be oblivious to the obvious.
It's a shame (shame, shame)
Reiterating disappointment if love isn't shared.
If you don't share some of your love with me
Expressing the desire for reciprocated love.
I can't help it, oh no
Feeling helpless or unable to control emotions.
He is gone
Referring to the departure of a loved one.
I must try to forget
Attempting to move forward despite the pain.
Because I've got to live on
Expressing the necessity to continue living.
Oh, it's a good thing, it's a sweet thing (it's a sweet thing)
Describing the positive nature of loving someone.
To love someone (such a sweet thing)
Highlighting the sweetness of loving another person.
But it's bad (bad) and even sad (sad)
Expressing the pain when love is unreciprocated.
When it's not returned
Emphasizing the disappointment when love isn't returned.
And oh, how lonesome, how lonesome, how lonesome (oh, how lonesome)
Reiterating the deep loneliness felt.
You must be (you must be)
Stating the depth of loneliness experienced again.
I tell you it would be a shame (shame, shame)
Emphasizing the shame if love isn't shared.
A shame if you don't share your love with me (share your love with me)
Urging the importance of sharing love to avoid regret.
It would really be a mistake, baby (shame, shame)
Reiterating the mistake of not sharing love.
If you don't share your love with me (share your love with me)
Highlighting the regret of not sharing love.
It would sure be a shame (shame, shame) if you don't share
Expressing the shame in not sharing love.
Share your love with me (share your love with me)
Reiterating the plea to share love.
