Love on the Rocks
Love's Struggle: A Melodic Tale of Heartbreak and Redemption
Lyrics
We met on a rainy evening in the summertime
We encountered each other during a rainy evening in the summer.
Don't think I need to tell you more
No further details are necessary to convey.
I needed a raise, I worked so hard for this love of mine
I sought a promotion, putting considerable effort into this relationship.
Love of mine
This relationship is dear to me.
Still I got nothing to show for it
Despite my efforts, I have nothing substantial to exhibit for it.
Here's a simplification of everything I'm going through
I'm simplifying the complexity of my emotional turmoil.
Ooh, you plus me is bad news
Our union leads to negative consequences.
But you're a lovely creation, I like to think that I am, too, ooh
You possess beauty, and I believe I do as well.
My friends said I look better without you, yeah
My friends think I appear better when not with you.
Tongue-tied and twisted
Feeling unable to express myself clearly.
Go on, baby, and go to my head
Your presence deeply affects me.
Babe, baby, believe me
Desire to convey truth, emphasizing the difficulty if I remain.
If I stay, it ain't gonna be easy
If I stay, it will be challenging.
Okay, we'll do it your way
Agreeing to your terms, albeit reluctantly.
But this is the last time
Insisting this is the final occurrence of this nature.
You'll hear the beautiful sound of love comin' down
Anticipating the wonderful feeling of love fading away.
Love on the rocks
Love's deterioration.
You love the chase, but hate me for the runaround
You enjoy the pursuit but resent being misled.
We're both just tired of the whole thing (tired of the whole thing)
We're both exhausted from this situation.
Oh, and you tell me what you want, you need
Asking for what you desire and believe is necessary.
You know you have to have
Understanding your compulsions.
And I just pretend I'm listening (listening)
Pretending to listen to your needs.
Too tired this time (ah)
Too fatigued to engage with your conventionalities.
To deal with old suits you wear, your ties that won't bind
Tired of dealing with your customary attire and unbinding commitments.
Baby, baby, believe me
Expressing difficulty in the relationship if I choose to stay.
If I stay, it ain't gonna be easy
Staying will pose challenges.
Okay, we'll do it your way
Agreeing to comply with your wishes.
But this is the last time
Asserting this as the final instance.
You'll hear the beautiful sound of love comin' down
Anticipating the end of love's pleasant sensation.
Hot as hell, cold as ice, sip it slow 'cause it's so nice
Love is both intense and chilling, best savored slowly.
Dulls my senses, drives my pain, but I do it again
Numbing my feelings, causing pain, yet I repeat the experience.
Burns a bit to the touch, dangerous if it's too much
Causes discomfort if excessive, akin to a heated touch.
If this bottle could talk
If this alcohol could speak...
Love on the rocks
Love's turmoil caused by intoxication.
Babe, baby believe me
Reiterating the difficulties if I decide to stay.
If I stay, it ain't gonna be easy
It won't be easy if I remain.
Okay
Agreement or acknowledgment.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, believe me
Expressing the inevitability of love's decline.
You'll hear the beautiful sound of love comin' down
Anticipating the fading echo of love.
