Only Love
Unveiling the Essence: Only Love by Melissa Etheridge Decoded
Lyrics
I takes me so long to understand sometimes
Expressing difficulty in understanding certain things, requiring time for comprehension.
Why it's so hard to understand, sometimes
Reflecting on the general challenge of understanding certain aspects of life.
It takes me two or three times sometimes
Acknowledging the need for repeated attempts to comprehend specific situations or concepts.
To try to get it right sometimes
Highlighting the effort invested in trying to get things right through multiple attempts.
To get it right
Emphasizing the importance of achieving correctness or understanding.
I've got some coins in my pocket
Mentioning possession of material things, possibly symbolizing aspects of life.
I've got a colored T-V
Listing items like coins and a colored T-V, possibly representing modern complexities.
It's gotten so complicated now
Observing the increasing complexity of life and questioning the meaning of freedom.
What does it mean to be free
Pondering the essence of freedom in the face of life's complications.
Only love is real
Declaring that only love holds true significance and authenticity.
Everything is love
Asserting that love encompasses everything and is a fundamental force.
Everything you feel
Stating that emotions and feelings are all rooted in the concept of love.
That's what your world is made of
Defining the world as being comprised of the emotions and feelings associated with love.
And when I took a good look around I see
Observing the return of thoughts and reflections upon taking a closer look at one's surroundings.
My thoughts are coming back to me
Noticing the retrieval of one's thoughts and self-awareness.
So look around
Encouraging a broad perspective, emphasizing personal agency in shaping dreams.
We are in charge of our own dreams
Affirming the individual's control over their dreams and aspirations.
We have more power than it seems
Highlighting the underestimated power that individuals possess.
So look around
Reiterating the call to examine and take charge of one's surroundings.
Come on now show me who you're lovin'
Encouraging the expression of love and asking to reveal both positive and negative emotions.
Then show me just who you hate
Requesting openness about feelings of hatred or negativity.
Then I can show you all your angels yeah
Promising to reveal the protective forces guarding personal paradise.
That guard your heaven's gate
Connecting the disclosure of emotions to the protection of a heavenly state.
Only love is real
Reiterating the central theme that only love is authentic and genuine.
Everything is love
Affirming that love encompasses everything, echoing the earlier assertion.
Everything you feel
Stating again that emotions and feelings are rooted in the concept of love.
That's what your world is made of
Reaffirming the idea that the world is made up of the emotions and feelings associated with love.
Everything is love
Emphasizing once more that everything is connected through the common thread of love.
Everything you feel
Repeating the concept that feelings and emotions are all rooted in the idea of love.
That's what your world is made of
Affirming again that the world is composed of the emotions and feelings associated with love.
That's what your world is made of
Reiterating and reinforcing the idea that the essence of the world is love.
That's what your world is made of
Emphasizing once more that the core of the world is made up of love.
Everything everything you feel
Repeating the assertion that everything, including emotions, is rooted in love.
That's what your world is made of
Reiterating that the fundamental essence of the world is love.
That's what, that's what your world is made of
Emphasizing again that everything, including feelings, is made up of love.
Everything is love
Concluding by affirming that love is the ultimate and pervasive force in everything.
