Love Shine Down
Love's Departure: A Heart's Plea for Renewed Flames
Lyrics
Ooh, hoo, once love was a fire
Love was once a passionate and intense force.
That came and lit my way
Love guided and illuminated the speaker's path.
I felt the fire die about a month ago
The intensity of the love has diminished recently.
And now I look at my man
The speaker observes her partner and senses his departure.
And I know he's goin' away
A confirmation that the partner is leaving.
And now, I want that man
The speaker expresses a strong desire for her partner.
Mmm, I need that man
Emphasizes the speaker's emotional dependency on her partner.
And I got to get back into his heart
The speaker is determined to rekindle their connection.
I said love shine down on me
A plea for love to return and shine upon the speaker.
Love shine down on me
Reiteration of the plea for love to shine on the speaker.
Love shine, light my way back into his heart
The speaker wants love to guide her back to her partner's heart.
I, I stood beside him
The speaker stood by her partner when others didn't.
When nobody else, nobody wanted to
Emphasizes the speaker's loyalty and support.
Well I've been down, yes I have
The speaker has faced challenges but remains resilient.
But I've never, never been broken
Despite challenges, the speaker has not been emotionally shattered.
'Til the day that he told me
The partner informs the speaker that their loving life is over.
The sweet lovin' life was through
The speaker experiences heartbreak upon learning of the end of love.
I said, I want that man
Reiteration of the strong desire to be with the partner.
Ooh, I need that man
Reiterates the emotional need for the partner.
And I got to get back into his heart
Determination to re-enter the partner's heart emotionally.
I said love shine down on me
A plea for love to shine on the speaker.
Love shine down on me
Repetition of the plea for love to shine on the speaker.
Love shine, light my way back into his
The speaker wants love to guide her back into her partner's heart.
Love shine
Repetition emphasizing the desire for love.
Oh, love shine
Continued emphasis on the power of love.
I said shine, shine, shine
Repeated calls for love to shine down on the speaker.
Oh, down on me
A strong desire for the illuminating power of love.
I want it, yes, I need it
The speaker expresses both a want and a need for love.
Oh, ho, oh, ho
An emotional exclamation reinforcing the desire for love.
I said love shine down on me
Final plea for love to shine down on the speaker.
