A Little More Love
Anthony Warlow/John Farnham/Olivia Newton-John Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wait alone in the heat
I know, know that you'll have your way
'Til you have to go home
No's a word I can't say
'Cause it gets me nowhere to tell you, "No"
And it gets me nowhere to make you go
Will a little more love make you stop depending?
Will a little more love bring a happy ending?
Will a little more love make it right?
Will a little more love make it right?
Where, where did my innocence go?
How, how was a young girl to know?
I'm trapped, trapped in the spell of your eyes
In the warmth of your arms
In the web of your lies
But it gets me nowhere to tell you, "No"
And it gets me nowhere to make you go
Will a little more love make you stop depending?
Will a little more love bring a happy ending?
Will a little more love make it right?
Will a little more love make it right?
Gets me nowhere to tell you, "No"
And it gets me nowhere to make you go
Will a little more love make you stop depending?
Will a little more love bring a happy ending?
Will a little more love make it right?
Will a little more love make it right?
Gets me nowhere to tell you, "No"
And it gets me nowhere to make you go
Will a little more love make you stop depending?
Will a little more love bring a happy ending?
Will a little more love make it right?
Will a little more love make it right?
Gets me nowhere to tell you, "No"
The lyrics of the song A Little More Love by Anthony Warlow/John Farnham/Olivia Newton-John are about a person who is waiting alone in the heat for their lover who has probably had their way earlier, and now has to go home. The person cannot say 'no' to the lover, and it gets them nowhere to try and make them go. They question if more love will make the lover stay or bring a happy ending to their relationship. The person contemplates on the loss of their innocence and getting trapped in the spell of the lover's eyes, warmth of their arms, and web of lies.
The lyrics showcase the internal struggle of wanting more from the relationship and the hesitance to express oneself for the fear of losing the lover. The usage of 'little more love' implies that the person is willing to compromise and wants to hold on to the relationship. The lyrics also suggest a form of manipulation and the person being caught in the toxic cycle of the relationship.
