Love Bites
Unveiling Love's Pain: Insights from "Love Bites" by Sertab Erener
Lyrics
The plan was really cool
The original plan was exciting or appealing.
Like a child in school
Comparing the situation to a child breaking rules in school.
But we broke all the rules on a hot night
Rules were broken on a passionate or intense night.
A man's gotta eat
A man has basic needs, and he must fulfill them.
Gotta feed his needs
Highlighting the necessity for a man to satisfy his desires.
And he's certain to retreat from a catfight
A man is likely to withdraw from a confrontation.
Once bit, twice shy
Having been hurt once, one becomes cautious.
Say you're out, nice try
Even if someone says they're out, don't believe it easily.
They hit you when you're down if you're off-sid
People will take advantage when you're vulnerable.
If you always do
If you consistently do the same things, expect the same outcomes.
Just what you've always done
Repeating familiar patterns leads to predictable consequences.
You're always gonna get it cause love bites
Doing the same things will result in experiencing the pain of love.
That's what I mean it's what I like
Expressing a preference or desire for a particular type of love.
Everybody's looking for a love bite
Everyone seeks a love that leaves a lasting mark.
It's forever, and after
Love is eternal and continues beyond the initial experience.
Backatcha it's allright
Reciprocal love is acceptable; everything is fine.
Forever and after, love, love, love, love bites
Love remains, even after the initial intensity; it can be painful.
Homo homie lupus now
Latin phrase suggesting "Man is a wolf to man."
How you gonna top it now
How will you surpass or exceed the current situation?
When you gonna cop us some insight
When will you gain some understanding or insight?
Changing roles, exchanging blows
Roles are changing, and conflicts are happening.
Digging holes, breaking laws
Engaging in destructive actions, breaking laws, and fighting.
Wrecking balls, waging warsof black and white
Conflict is intense and involves opposing forces.
Such a sad dilemmo for you
Presenting a difficult situation or choice.
Daddy and your mamma who've been
Parents have been fighting continuously.
Brawling through the summer from morning to night
Their conflict has been ongoing, spanning from morning to night.
All the creatures of the day
People during daylight hours believe everything is fine.
Always think that it's okay
Until they realize, to their dismay, that love can be painful.
Until they find it their dismay that love bites
(Empty line, no specific meaning provided.)
That's what I mean it's what I like
Everyone seeks a love that leaves a lasting mark.
Everbody's looking for a love bite
Love is eternal and continues beyond the initial experience.
It's forever, and after
Reciprocal love is acceptable; everything is fine.
Backatcha it's allright
Love remains, even after the initial intensity; it can be painful.
Forever and after, love, love, love, love bites
(Empty line, no specific meaning provided.)
Everybody screaming no not me
Despite protests, everyone ends up repeating the history of love.
But we all end up repeating history
(Reiteration of the inevitability of repeating historical love patterns.)
