Thinking Out Loud
Ed Sheeran Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks

And darling I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Oh me I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

So honey now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way, mm
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause honey your soul can never grow old, it's evergreen
Baby your smile's forever in my mind and memory

I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

But baby now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are, oh

(Ah la la, la la la, la la la, la la la la)

So baby now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are





Oh baby, we found love right where we are (maybe)
And we found love right where we are

Line by Line Meaning

When your legs don't work like they used to before
As your body ages, your physical abilities may begin to decline


And I can't sweep you off of your feet
I may not always be able to impress you or make you feel special


Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love
Do you think you’ll always cherish the memories of our love?


Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks
Will you always feel happy and content in my company?


And darling I will be loving you 'til we're 70
I will love you for the rest of our lives together


And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23
My love for you is still as strong as it was when we first fell in love


And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Love doesn't always make sense or follow a clear path


Maybe just the touch of a hand
Sometimes love can begin with a simple physical connection


Oh me I fall in love with you every single day
My love for you grows stronger each day we spend together


And I just wanna tell you I am
I want you to know how much I love you and how important you are to me


So honey now
Addressing the person I love affectionately


Take me into your loving arms

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Let's share a romantic moment under the beauty of the heavens above


Place your head on my beating heart
Listen to my heartbeat and feel the love within me


I'm thinking out loud
I'm expressing my thoughts and emotions openly and honestly


Maybe we found love right where we are
Perhaps we were meant to be together all along


When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
In old age, I may lose my physical abilities and cognitive functions


And the crowds don't remember my name
My accomplishments and fame may fade away with time


When my hands don't play the strings the same way, mm
I may not be able to perform as well as I used to


I know you will still love me the same
I trust that you will always love me for who I am, regardless of my abilities


'Cause honey your soul can never grow old, it's evergreen
Your spirit will remain youthful and vibrant, and your love will never fade away


Baby your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I will always remember the joy and happiness your smile brings me


Maybe it's all part of a plan
Perhaps our love story is predetermined by fate or a greater power


I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
I may not be perfect, but I will continue to work on myself and our relationship


Hoping that you'll understand
I trust that you will forgive my flaws and accept me for who I am


Oh darling, place your head on my beating heart
Listen to the rhythm of my heart and feel the intensity of my love for you


Oh baby, we found love right where we are (maybe)
Our love story may not follow a traditional path, but we found each other and that's all that matters

[Verse 1]
When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

[Pre-Chorus]
And darlin', I will be lovin' you till we're seventy
And baby, my heart could still fall as hard at twenty-three
And I'm thinkin' 'bout how
People fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well, me, I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

[Chorus]
So honey, now, take me into your lovin' arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
And place your head on my beatin' heart, I'm thinkin' out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are

[Verse 2]
When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way, mmm
I know you will still love me the same

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause, honey, your soul who could never grow old, it's evergreen
And baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinkin' 'bout how
People fall in love in mysterious ways
And maybe it's all part of a plan
Oh, I'll just keep on makin' the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

[Chorus]
That, baby, now, take me into your lovin' arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beatin' heart, I'm thinkin' out loud
And maybe we found love right where we are, oh-oh

[Bridge]
Lo-lo-lo, lo-lo-lo
Lo-lo-lo, lo-lo-lo, love

[Chorus]
So baby, now, take me into your lovin' arms
And kiss me under the light of a thousand stars, oh, darlin'
Place your head on my beatin' heart, I'm thinkin' out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are
Oh, maybe we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are

Can we all just appreciate the fact that Ed Sheeran danced in this video. He could of gotten any other guy to do this for the video, but he was bound and determined to learn and be the one in the video to dance this. Not many artists would do that, he slimmed down some and took time to be taught the dance. I just still find it amazing.

yaaaa
