Do You Love Me
[unknown] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I hope we can make it grow still
Lately it seems you are less than satisfied
But I have not yet had my fill
You say that you're drawn to my hunger for life
These cravings go deeper than that
This question weighing heavy on more than my mind, is
Will you still love me when I'm fat
Will you forgive my midnight snacks
And love me even when I'm fat
I once was a dancer, light and deft on my feet
But as the years fly by I can't turn down the sweets
In isolation I gained the covid nineteen
I can see in your eyes it's distressing
I cycle on my peloton, extend those donkey kicks
I count the carbs and cut the lard, I'm out of points by 6
No cow, no pig, I'm sick of it, I think I'm gonna crack
My wine, it looks so lonely on the rack
When I was a young girl, I was told to always clean my plate
That worked out swell until I turned about 28
At first I grew buxom, but then I was struck dumb
When a woman told me in all sincerity - you have such a pretty face
For a while, I was defeated, fully under duress
Thinking what is my worth if I can't zip up my wedding dress
But then I realized - I think I still look pretty good - and no one else gets a say
I can still fit the heels from my wedding day
I will still love me when I'm fat
I'll buy elastic waisted pants
I'll stock the fridge with midnight snacks
And look good even when I'm fat
I will still love you when you're fat
We'll share elastic waisted pants
I'll bring the food for midnight snacks
And love each other when we're fat

My dear, our love has been larger than life
Our love has been extraordinary and bigger than anything else
I hope we can make it grow still
I desire for our love to continue growing and thriving
Lately it seems you are less than satisfied
Recently, it appears that you're not completely content
But I have not yet had my fill
However, I still haven't had enough of our love
You say that you're drawn to my hunger for life
You express that you're attracted to my deep yearning for experiences
These cravings go deeper than that
These longings extend far beyond just a desire for excitement
This question weighing heavy on more than my mind, is
This question burdens not only my thoughts, but also my emotions
Will you still love me when I'm fat
Will you continue to love me even if I gain weight
When I can't button up my pants
When I struggle to fasten my trousers
Will you forgive my midnight snacks
Will you pardon me for indulging in snacks during the late hours
And love me even when I'm fat
And cherish me despite my increased body size
I once was a dancer, light and deft on my feet
There was a time when I used to dance gracefully and nimbly
But as the years fly by I can't turn down the sweets
However, as time passes, I find it hard to resist sugary treats
In isolation I gained the covid nineteen
During the period of isolation, I gained weight, commonly referred to as the 'Covid nineteen'
I can see in your eyes it's distressing
I can perceive from your expression that it troubles you
I cycle on my peloton, extend those donkey kicks
I engage in cycling on my Peloton and perform exercises like donkey kicks
I count the carbs and cut the lard, I'm out of points by 6
I meticulously monitor my carbohydrate intake and reduce fatty foods, often exceeding my daily limits by 6 points
No cow, no pig, I'm sick of it, I think I'm gonna crack
I'm tired of abstaining from consuming beef and pork, and I feel like I'm reaching my breaking point
My wine, it looks so lonely on the rack
My wine bottle appears lonely and untouched on the wine rack
When I was a young girl, I was told to always clean my plate
During my childhood, I was taught to finish all the food on my plate
That worked out swell until I turned about 28
That strategy seemed effective until I reached approximately 28 years of age
At first I grew buxom, but then I was struck dumb
Initially, I developed a curvaceous figure, but later, I felt dumbfounded and disheartened
When a woman told me in all sincerity - you have such a pretty face
When another woman sincerely remarked - you are attractive in terms of facial features
For a while, I was defeated, fully under duress
For a period of time, I felt defeated and completely stressed
Thinking what is my worth if I can't zip up my wedding dress
Contemplating what value I hold if I am unable to fasten my wedding gown
But then I realized - I think I still look pretty good - and no one else gets a say
However, I had an epiphany - I believe I still appear attractive - and nobody else should have a say in it
I can still fit the heels from my wedding day
I can still wear the high-heeled shoes I had on my wedding day
I will still love me when I'm fat
I will continue to love myself even if I gain weight
I'll buy elastic waisted pants
I will purchase pants with elastic waistbands
I'll stock the fridge with midnight snacks
I will ensure that the refrigerator is filled with snacks for late-night cravings
And look good even when I'm fat
And maintain an attractive appearance despite my increased body size
I will still love you when you're fat
I will continue to love you even if you gain weight
We'll share elastic waisted pants
We will both wear trousers with elastic waistbands
I'll bring the food for midnight snacks
I will provide the food for our late-night snacking sessions
And love each other when we're fat
And love one another despite our increased body sizes

Props to whoever made the decision to record this classic on color video tape. It's timeless and is probably one of the oldest music videos around.
thomas agustin
this is a remaster
Jon Martinez
@thomas agustin Yeah it's remastered, but it was originally recorded on 2-inch videotape, which is why it's so smooth and lacks grain. Motown did that with their artists.

For straight ahead true rock and roll, it doesn't get better than this. I was a HS sophomore when this gem came out. We'd dance like crazy every time it came on. Watch me now, hey!!!
