Lyrics
I didn't know I was getting into
Expresses unawareness of the depth of commitment initially entered.
When I got my first taste of you
Refers to the initial experience of being involved with the subject.
You were just what I was lookin' for
Highlights the alignment between desires and finding the perfect match.
And once I had a little I had to have more
Implies an increasing craving for the subject once introduced.
'Cause I'd wake up moanin' in the middle of the night
Illustrates a profound longing, waking up yearning for the subject.
The sound of your name was all that sounded right
Emphasizes the significance and comfort associated with the subject's name.
Ran back to your door all soaked with sweat
Describes a desperate return to the subject, filled with intensity.
Had to have your kiss before I starved to death
Exaggerates the necessity of the subject's affection.
When you're livin' on love, it's all you need
Emphasizes that love becomes the sole necessity in life.

Livin' on love, there ain't no doubt
Underlines the irreplaceable nature of love.
It's the one thing that you can't live without

You can have the world, but you still wouldn't have enough

Some folks just don?t seem to understand
Expresses the inability of some to comprehend the reliance on affection.
How I seem to survive on the touch of your hand
Emphasizes survival solely through the intimacy shared.
I don't need to eat, I don't need no rest
Downplays the necessity of basic needs compared to emotional fulfillment.
If I can get my fill of your tenderness
Emphasizes the importance of emotional fulfillment above all.
When I get wore down and feelin' rough
Highlights reliance on affection when feeling depleted.
A long cool drink from your lovin' cup
Describes the rejuvenation and comfort derived from the subject's love.
Makes me feel better, makes me feel strong
Expresses the empowerment gained from the subject's affection.
Oh have mercy on me if I find you gone
Expresses fear and vulnerability if the subject's love is absent.
When you're livin' on love, and it's all you need
Reiterates love as the singular necessity in life.
A constant hunger that you've got to feed
Emphasizes the continuous and imperative nature of love's fulfillment.
