Lovers
Albin Lee Meldau Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lovers
Give a little kiss and turn off the lights

Lovers
Give a little kiss before you fade away
One more bottle of red, red wine
She never kisses me that way
One more bottle, I loose my mind
One more time, one less time
I beg my lover,
give a little kiss and turn off the lights
I beg my lover,
give a little kiss before you fade away
One more bottle of red, red wine
She never caresses me that way
One more bottle, I loose my mind
One more time, one less time

I beg my lover,
give a little kiss and fade away




You, my lover
Give a little kiss and turn of the lights

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Albin Lee Meldau's "Lovers" are a poignant reflection on the impermanence of love and the fleeting nature of human connection. The song is essentially a plea to a lover to stay in the present moment and cherish their time together before it inevitably fades away. The repeated refrain of "give a little kiss and turn off the lights" is a powerful metaphor for the end of a relationship, suggesting that the couple should savor their last moments together before saying goodbye.


The song's verses describe the singer's struggle to come to terms with the fact that his lover is slipping away from him. He seeks solace in a bottle of red wine, hoping that it will numb the pain and allow him to hold on to his lover for just a little while longer. But he knows deep down that time is running out, and that any moment could be their last together. The final line of the song, "You, my lover, give a little kiss and turn off the lights," is a heart-wrenching reminder that even the most passionate love affairs must come to an end.


Overall, "Lovers" is a beautifully written and deeply moving song that captures the bittersweet emotion of a relationship on the brink of collapse. It speaks to anyone who has ever loved and lost, reminding us that even though our connections may be temporary, they are no less meaningful for that.
