Lyrics

I know you don't love me no more

I am aware that your love for me has diminished.

No more, no, no more

Reiteration of the fact that the love has ended.

And I don't want to be hurt anymore

I do not wish to experience emotional pain any longer.

Anymore

Repeating the desire to avoid further emotional distress.

I love so hard

I invested a significant amount of effort and emotion in loving you.

Everything I did was no joy

All my efforts brought no happiness.

If I can't love you right, baby

If I cannot love you in the right way, I'd rather not love you at all.

I don't have to love you at all

Continuation of the willingness to refrain from loving inadequately.

I know you don't want me no more

Acknowledgment that your desire for me has diminished.

No more, no, no more

Reiteration of the fact that the love has ended (repeated).

And I need someone else

I require someone else who can love me more effectively.

Who's gonna love me more

Repeating the need for a more loving partner.

Love me more

Emphasizing the desire for increased love from a new partner.

Ain't no need me cryin' now

No need for tears now, despite the emotional pain inflicted.

After you have put me down

Addressing the emotional aftermath of being rejected.

If you don't want me no more, baby

If you no longer desire me, it is pointless for you to linger.

Ain't no use you hangin' round

Advising against staying around when love has faded.

I know you don't want me no more

Reiteration of the awareness that your love has diminished (repeated).

No more, no, no more

Restating the fact that the love has ended (repeated).

And I need someone else

Expressing the need for a different, more loving partner (repeated).

Who's gonna love me more

Repeating the desire for increased love from a new partner (repeated).

Love me more

Emphasizing the longing for heightened love in a new relationship (repeated).

Ain't no need me cryin' now

No need for tears now, despite the emotional pain inflicted (repeated).

After you have put me down

Addressing the emotional aftermath of being rejected (repeated).

If you don't want me no more, baby

If you no longer desire me, it is pointless for you to linger (repeated).

Ain't no use you hangin' round

Advising against staying around when love has faded (repeated).

I know you don't want me no more

Reiteration of the awareness that your love has diminished (repeated).

I know, I know

Further emphasis on the knowledge of the diminished love.

And I don't want to be hurt anymore

Expressing the desire to avoid emotional pain in the future.

Anymore

Repeating the wish to avoid further emotional distress.

Love me more

Reiterating the need for increased love from a new partner (repeated).

After you have put me down

Addressing the emotional aftermath of being rejected (repeated).

Ain't no use you hangin' round

Advising against staying around when love has faded (repeated).

You don't want me no more, baby

If you no longer desire me, it is pointless for you to linger (repeated).

Ain't no use you hangin' round

Advising against staying around when love has faded (repeated).
