Old Love
Embracing the Slow Burn: Unraveling the Deep Essence of Old Love
Lyrics
She said I want come down there, let me in
Desire to be let in, seeking connection
Why you so hard on me? Are you scared of the end?
Questioning the intensity, fear of the end
Cause if there's a light in the doorway, wont you give me a story? Ohh
Seeking a story if there's hope in the situation
Sweet justice is rarely your friend
Justice is seldom supportive or kind
Because there's old love
Reference to enduring, lasting love
Burns a little slower when you're under the covers now
Love's intensity slows down in intimate moments
Old Love
Reiteration of the theme of enduring love
Feels just like a home when you're on the road, yeah
Love feels like a home during travels
Old love
Continuation of the theme of lasting love
Cause when the words are over, sometimes you gotta show her that
Expressing the need for actions in addition to words
Old loving man
Emphasis on being an old-fashioned lover
And I don't care for the words they say, they complicate it
Disregarding negative opinions, love is complicated
There's just something about her way, and I'm gonna say it
Attraction to something unique about the person
She's a lively spark, yeah, she really, lord, she really left a mark
Describing the lasting impact of the person
On this old love
Reiteration of the enduring nature of love
That burns a little slower when you're under the covers now
Intimacy slows down the intensity of love
Old Love
Continued emphasis on long-lasting love
Feels just like a home when you're on the road, yeah
Love provides a sense of home during travels
Old love
Reiteration of the theme of lasting love
Cause when the words are over, sometimes you gotta show her that
Action is needed to express love after words
Old loving man
Identifying as an old-fashioned lover
Yeah, yeah, oh yea, oh yeah, woahh yeah, yeah, oh yeaheha
Non-lyrical vocal expression
Now we're on the darker side of town, mmm, but she's still around
Despite challenges, the person is still present
Hey what can I say? Baby, I got my ways, yeah, baby I got my ways
Acknowledging personal ways or habits
With this old love
Reiteration of enduring, slow-burning love
That burns a little slower when you're under the covers now
Intimacy slows down the intensity of love
Old Love
Continued emphasis on long-lasting love
Feels just like a home when you're on the road, yeah
Love provides a sense of home during travels
Old love
Reiteration of the theme of lasting love
Cause when the words are over, sometimes you gotta show her that
Action is needed to express love after words
Old loving man
Identifying as an old-fashioned lover
Show her that old loving man
Reiterating the need to show enduring love
Give her that old loving man
Emphasizing the act of giving old-fashioned love
