What Your Love Does for Me
Revel in Love's Transformative Power | Tanya Tucker Song Meaning
Lyrics
I was givin' up on givin' love another try
I was losing hope in giving love another chance.
But were easy on the heart
However, you were gentle on my emotions and pleasing to the eye.
And easy on the eye
Expressing surprise at the unexpected positive qualities.
I wouldn't have believed it if I'd been told
Initially skeptical, wouldn't have believed it if told.
I'd have my very own angel to hold
Now has a special person (angel) to embrace.
Like a warm blanket I can wrap around my soul
Your love is like a comforting blanket for my soul.
You're good lookin'
Complimenting the partner on their attractiveness.
You're good luck
Bringing good fortune into the speaker's life.
You make me feel like a million bucks
Makes the speaker feel incredibly valuable.
That's what your love does for me
Summarizing the positive impact of the partner's love.
Like a child, a little wild
The speaker feels youthful and unrestrained.
And like everything I do is in style
Everything the speaker does feels stylish and attractive.
That's what your love does for me
Reiterating the positive effects of the partner's love.
You look my outlook and you sure shook it up
Partner has added sweetness and joy to the speaker's perspective.
With a little bit of sweetness
Referencing love as a source of sweetness.
From your lovin' cup
Symbolic reference to the partner's love.
What was once half empty is now half full
Life, once lacking, is now fulfilling and optimistic.
Now I'm an optimist, baby, dyed in the wool
The speaker has become an optimist due to the partner.
Ever since you gave my lonely heart strings a pull
The partner has brought joy to the speaker's lonely heart.
You're good lookin'
Reiterating the partner's attractiveness.
You're good luck
Continuing to acknowledge the partner's positive influence.
You make me feel like a million bucks
Reinforcing the partner's ability to make the speaker feel valuable.
That's what your love does for me
Restating the positive impact of the partner's love.
Like a child, a little wild
Comparing the speaker to a child, carefree and unrestrained.
And like everything I do is in style
Emphasizing the stylish and attractive nature of the speaker's actions.
That's what your love does for me
Reiterating the positive impact of the partner's love.
You set the mood
The partner influences the emotional atmosphere positively.
You set me free
The partner liberates the speaker emotionally.
Like a prisoner with my own jail key
The partner's love frees the speaker like a key to a prison.
That's what your love does for me
Reiterating the liberating effect of the partner's love.
Like a new dime
Feeling new, refreshed, and valuable like a new dime.
Don't I shine
Highlighting the speaker's radiant and positive state.
Feels like every day with you is spring time
