I'm Still in Love With You
Al Green Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spending my day thinkin' 'bout you girl
Being here with you
Being near with you
I can't explain myself
Why I, feel like I do (like I do)
Though it hurt me so
To let you know
When I look in your eyes
You have to let me know
How you feel
Let me know that love is really real
Well, it seems to me
That I'm
Wrapped up in your love

Don't you know that I'm
Still in love (still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, yeah

Heaven knows that I'm
Still in love (still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, hey

And I look in your eyes
And all, all the years, I see (I see)
Me lovin' you
And you lovin' me
Well, it seems to me
That I'm so wrapped up in your love

Don't you know that I'm
Still in love (still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you, hey
I, I, I





I need you to know that I'm
Still in love (still in love, in love with you)
Sho' 'nuff in love with you
Yeah, I'll try it if you want me too (still in love, in love with you)
I, I, I, I, I

Heaven = Cruising in a 75' Cadillac, listening to AL Green on a long country road, during a summer afternoon eating an ice cream cone at slow speed while heading to a family cookout at grandma's house which is down a dusty path with tall cedar trees giving you a windy salute as they gently rock back and forth until sunset. I miss you grandma. See you soon.

@ReinFloyd

Yeah, you was jamming then.
