Lyrics
She said, "Love me just a little bit more
Expressing a desire for more love
Hold me just a little bit longer
Requesting a longer embrace
Say my name the way you used to"
Asking for a familiar way of being addressed
She gives her love to me unconditionally
Receiving love without conditions
How could I ever refuse ya
Acknowledging the inability to refuse such love
And if the year that I was born is like the morning
Comparing life stages to day and night
And the year that I die is like the night
Symbolizing birth and death as morning and night
Then this time between is such a short and precious thing
Highlighting the brevity of life as precious
I can't wait 'til after the evening's done just to love you
Anticipation of expressing love after the day is done
Days and nights with her
Describing the passage of time spent together
We grow just a little bit stronger
Indicating growth and strength in the relationship
I tried in vain one time to trace it
Unsuccessful attempt to understand or follow a path
Time was we ran away
Recalling a time of escape or avoidance
From the truth and the words of the music
Reflecting on evading reality with music
But there's still time for us to face it
Recognizing the opportunity to confront the truth
She said, "Love me just a little bit more
Reiterating the request for more love
Hold me just a little bit longer
Expressing a desire for an extended embrace
Say my name the way you used to"
Asking for a specific way of being addressed
She gives her love to me unconditionally
Receiving love without conditions once again
How could I ever refuse ya
Acknowledging the impossibility of refusing such love
And if the year that I was born is like the morning
Continuing the metaphor of life stages as day and night
Then the year that I die is like the night
Reiterating birth and death as morning and night
Then this time between is such a short and precious thing
Emphasizing the fleeting and valuable nature of life
I can't wait 'til after the evening's done just to love you
Anticipating expressing love after the day is over
And know I need you still
Expressing an enduring and constant need for the loved one
You know I always will
-And know I need you still
-You know I always will
-And know I need you still
-You know I always will
