Where Love Lives
Alison Limerick Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you've been down
You've been set out of your course boy
And pushed around
Flying high, but oh you felt so low
When she walked out of that door and left you on your own
Don't reach out for me with an apology
Don't reach out for me with an apology
But I'll share it
So why don't you take my hand
Come away, come out of your blues
Boy everything you give, so will I give something to you
I'll take you down, deep down where the love lives
Where love lives, where love lives
Follow me down, deep down where the love lives
Where love lives, where love lives
Just come on in
(We're gonna have a good time, are you with me? - Yeah!)
Come on in, come on in, come on in
Come on in, come on in, come on in, eh-eh-eh-eh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
So you're longing for the warmth of somebody
You've got nothing in this world to lose
Let me take you down where love lives
Come away, come on out of your blues
Don't reach out for me with an apology
I'll never suffer your desire
Don't reach out for me with an apology
But I'll share it
So why don't you take my hand
Come away, come out of your blues
Boy everything you give, so will I give something to you
I'll take you down, deep down where the love lives
Where love lives, where love lives
Follow me down, deep down where the love lives
Where love lives, where love lives
Just come on in, where love lives
Just come on inรข?ยฆ.
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh where love lives
Where love lives, where love lives
Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh where love lives
Where love lives, where love lives
Just come on in, where love livesรข?ยฆ

You've been hurt
You have been emotionally wounded
And you've been down
You have been feeling low
You've been set out of your course boy
You have been thrown off your path
And pushed around
You have been mistreated by others
Flying high, but oh you felt so low
You may have seemed successful, but inside you felt unhappy
When she walked out of that door and left you on your own
You've recently experienced a painful breakup or loss
Don't reach out for me with an apology
Don't try to make amends with me
I'll never suffer your desire
I'm not interested in you romantically
But I'll share it
I'm willing to give you something else
So why don't you take my hand
Let me help you
Come away, come out of your blues
Escape from your sadness
Boy everything you give, so will I give something to you
I'll match your efforts to help you
I'll take you down, deep down where the love lives
