Love You Longer
Longing for Time Lost: A Song Reflecting on Love's Untimely Discovery
Lyrics
What would you do girl if you could slip back, dip back
Reflecting on the possibility of going back in time
Take a trip back in time
Imagining a journey back in time
Well me, I know what I would if I could change one thing in my life
Expressing a desire to change something in life
I wouldn't save my daddy's car I wrecked
Choosing not to save a wrecked car, a regretful incident
Or worry bout the game winner I missed
Not worrying about a missed game-winning opportunity
You know there's only one thing I'd do
Highlighting the importance of a specific action
I'd go back a few years before I found you...and
Expressing a wish to go back before meeting the person
Hit the bar where we first met
Recalling the location of the first meeting
Get in with your crowd before you ever knew me
Desiring to be part of the other person's social circle earlier
Or call your mama, tell her I'm an old friend
Considering reaching out to the person's mother
Wonder where you been, and if she saw thru me, I'd
Wondering about being perceived as an old friend
Find where you were living, and when you're walking out the door
Fantasizing about finding the person earlier
Time a casual collision on the corner
Describing a chance encounter
Ooo, what I would do is try to find you sooner
Expressing a desire to meet sooner for prolonged love
So I could love you longer
Stating the ultimate goal: to love the person longer
If you were dating somebody dumb, I'd have some fun breaking you up
Contemplating interfering if the person is with someone else
And I'd probably have to bite my tongue when you wonder how I know that you're the one
Acknowledging the challenge of explaining knowledge about the person
They say that love is a broken road
Referring to love as a challenging journey
I only wish we got an head start wherever we go
Expressing a desire for a head start in love
More days, more laughs more cries
Wishing for more time in life for various experiences
In this beautiful life if i had more time...I'd
Desiring additional moments in the beautiful life
Hit the bar where we first met
Revisiting the location of the first meeting
Get in with your crowd before you ever knew me
Yearning to be part of the person's social circle earlier
Or call your mama, tell her I'm an old friend
Considering contacting the person's mother
Wonder where you been, and if she saw thru me, I'd
Reflecting on being perceived as an old friend
Find where you were living, and when you're walking out the door
Fantasizing about finding the person earlier
Time a casual collision on the corner
Describing a chance encounter
Ooo, what I would do is try to find you sooner
Expressing a desire to meet sooner for prolonged love
So I could love you longer
Reiterating the goal of loving the person longer
Figure out what you were driving back then
Wanting to know more about the person's past
Find you rolling around town, pull out right in front of you
Imagining a playful interaction with the person's vehicle
Tap the brakes so you bump my truck, I know its mean so that's only after I've tried to
Acknowledging the potential meanness of the action
Hit the bar where we first met
Revisiting the location of the first meeting
Get in with your crowd before you ever knew me
Yearning to be part of the person's social circle earlier
Or call your mama, tell her I'm an old friend
Considering contacting the person's mother
Wonder where you been, and if she saw thru me, I'd
Reflecting on being perceived as an old friend
Find where you were living, and when you're walking out the door
Fantasizing about finding the person earlier
Time a casual collision on the corner
Describing a chance encounter
Ooo, what I would do is try to find you sooner
Expressing a desire to meet sooner for prolonged love
So I could love you longer
Reiterating the goal of loving the person longer
