220 Volt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You left me and still I’m so busy thinking of you
Now I know what it's like to want you
What it's like when you're not here
Now I know I could've done without you
If only love hadn't come my way
Still in love with you - still in love
I'm still in love with you - the only one I want
Now, tell me I’m dreaming, say it isn’t true
Emotional feedback, I can’t stop loving you
When a life is made for living
Ain't it sad how the story goes
When you take instead of giving
You'll be left standing all alone
Chorus
So you call it circumstances
When you're about to ruin me
So unfair, what are my chances
When my heart is made to break
I'm still in love - still in love
Do you want me back - the only one in love
I'm still in love with you - the only one I want

The chorus repeats the phrase "Still in love with you" emphasizing the singer's unchanged emotions towards their loved one. The phrase "Do you want me back - the only one in love" suggests that the singer's love is one-sided and they are unsure if it will be reciprocated.
