In Love with a Girl
Love's Resilience: Unveiling the Depths of Connection in Gavin DeGraw's Melody
Lyrics
So many people gonna say that they want you
Acknowledging that many people express desire for you.
To try to get you thinking they really care
Warning about those who pretend to care for personal gain.
But there's nothing like the warmth of the one
Emphasizing the unique warmth from someone who invested time.
Who has put in the time and you know he's gonna be there
Assurance that this person will be there for you.
Back your border when she knows someone crossed it
Encouragement to defend boundaries against intrusion.
Don't let nobody put you down, who you're with
Advising not to let others belittle your choice of partner.
Take the pain of protecting your name
Enduring pain to protect one's reputation and name.
From the crutch to the cane to the high wire
Metaphorical journey from dependence ("crutch") to independence ("high wire").
I'm in love with a girl who knows me better
Expressing love for a girl who understands the speaker well.
Fell for the women just when I met her
Falling for the woman from the moment they met.
Took my sweet time when I was bitter
Choosing to take time to overcome bitterness.
Someone understands
Appreciation for someone who truly understands.
And she knows how to treat a fella right
Highlighting the girl's ability to treat the speaker well.
Give me that feeling every night
Desiring a positive feeling from the relationship every night.
Wants to make love when I wanna fight
Contrasting the desire for love with the potential for conflict.
Now someone understand me
Reiterating that someone understands the speaker.
I'm in love with a girl (I'm in love with)
Repeated declaration of being in love with the girl.
I'm in love with a girl (I'm in love with)
-Out the many broken back doors and windows
Metaphorical description of challenges and fleeting moments in relationships.
Through the valley of the love of the lost
-Is a hole that is cut through the souls falling down
-From the thrones without reading any innuendos
-But you found it a piece for the moment
-The moment was over in time
-Then it's gone, the hit and run
-The differs one has a short life
-I'm in love with a girl who knows me better
Reiteration of love for a girl who understands and treats well.
Fell for the women just when I met her
-Took my sweet time when I was bitter
-Someone understands
-And she knows how to treat a fella right
-Give me that feeling every night
-Wants to make love when I wanna fight
-Now someone understand me
-I'm in love with a girl (I'm in love with)
Repeated declaration of being in love with the girl.
I'm in love with a girl (I'm in love with)
-I wanna tell you what you do to think you practice what you preach
Expressing the importance of practicing what one preaches in a relationship.
Now I know there's nothing we can't reach
-'Cause the heart can't erase once it finds a place
-To be warm and welcome
-To be held in shelter
-I'm in love with a girl who knows me better
Repeating the theme of being in love with a understanding and caring girl.
Fell for the women just when I met her
-Took my sweet time when I was bitter
-Someone understands
-And she knows how to treat a fella right
-Give me that feeling every night
-Wants to make love when I wanna fight
-Now someone understand me
-I'm in love with a girl (I'm in love with)
Repeated declaration of being in love with the girl.
I'm in love with a girl (I'm in love with)
-I'm in love with a girl (I'm in love with)
-Who knows me better
Reiterating the girl's understanding and the desire for love over conflict.
Wants to make love when I wanna fight
-Now someone understand me
