The Trouble With Love
Love's Peril: A Melodic Tale of Yearning and Regret
Lyrics
Hello
Greeting someone
Oh, sorry. Wrong number
Apologizing for dialing the wrong number
Hello.
Greeting again
Lydia, it's Natasha.
Identifying the caller (Natasha) to Lydia
Do you know what time it is?
Expressing urgency and the need for a conversation
Listen, I really need to talk to you.
Stating the importance of the talk
So I said I had to have him.
Describing a past decision to pursue a romantic interest
Then he stopped takin' my calls.
Noticing a change in the other person's behavior
When he was breakin' down my door.
Recalling a time when the person was persistent
I didn't want him much at all.
Realizing a lack of initial interest in the person
That's the trouble,
Introducing the theme of love as a problem
The trouble with love.
Reiterating the theme of love being troublesome
So I told him it was over,
Declaring the end of a romantic relationship
Said we couldn't be more than friends.
Setting boundaries for the relationship
One goodbye kiss, then another,
Describing a farewell encounter with kissing involved
There I was in trouble again.
Finding oneself in a problematic situation again
That's the trouble,
Reiterating the theme of love as troublesome
The trouble with love.
Repeating the idea of love being troublesome
That's the trouble,
Reinforcing the concept of love as problematic
Trouble with love.
Emphasizing the difficulty associated with love
Seems like I'm either drownin' in it,
Expressing the feeling of being overwhelmed or insatiable in love
Or just can't get enough.
Describing extremes in the experience of love
That's the trouble with love.
Reiterating the troublesome nature of love
Swore I'd had it with the heartache,
Expressing a determination to avoid heartache
Gonna step out on my own.
Deciding to be independent
But when the moonlight starts a callin',
Feeling lonely and vulnerable when alone
I can't stand the bein' alone.
Struggling with the desire for companionship
That's the trouble,
Reiterating the theme of love as troublesome
The trouble with love.
Repeating the idea of love being troublesome
That's the trouble,
Reinforcing the concept of love as problematic
The trouble with love.
Emphasizing the difficulty associated with love
Seems like I'm either drownin' in it,
Describing extremes in the experience of love
Or just can't get enough.
Expressing the feeling of being overwhelmed or insatiable in love
That's the trouble with love.
Reiterating the troublesome nature of love
Instrumental break.
Instrumental break, no lyrics
Seems like I'm either drownin' in it,
Describing extremes in the experience of love
Or I just can't get enough, oooh.
Expressing the feeling of being overwhelmed or insatiable in love
That's the trouble with,
Highlighting the difficulties associated with love
The trouble with love.
Repeating the idea of love being troublesome
Oh, that's the trouble with love.
Concluding with the affirmation of love as problematic
