Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
Twenty-four seven love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
Twenty-four seven love you know, just what I need
In the morning, in the evening
In the winter, spring, or summer
Whether it's early or it's late
It doesn't matter any time
Tender loving sweet devotion
Every second, minute, hour
I'll be waiting for you
Come put your loving on the line
Take me in your arms and let me know
That it's all right
Look into my eyes and let me see you
Deep inside
Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week
I need to feel you here beside me
I need to hold and squeeze you tight
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
Twenty-four seven love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
Twenty-four seven love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
Twenty-four seven love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
If you want me to do you right
You're gonna have to love me day and night
Twenty-four seven love you know, just what I need
It's what I need
I'll be praying, asking, saying
Send someone like you just for me
Someone special, I belong to
I could be yours and you could be mine
Quiet moments filled with passion
In my heart you know I'm yearning
Long to please you, touch you
Send me your loving right on time
The lyrics of Artful Dodger Feat. Melanie Blatt's song, "Twenty Four Seven," speaks about a passionate love that requires complete and constant attention. The persona in the song implies that to do her right; her partner must love her day and night. The 24/7 expression here means "all day, every day," emphasizing how much she needs and wants her partner's love. It's clear that she is completely invested in the relationship and expects her partner to reciprocate that level of devotion.
In the chorus, she expresses her desire to have her partner beside her all day, every day. She craves his physical presence and wants to hold and squeeze him 'tight.' The bridge part of the song is a heartfelt prayer, where the persona asks for someone special like her partner to be sent just for her. She longs for quiet moments filled with passion and desires to please her partner. In essence, the sentiment of the song is that love is not just about saying the right things or showing up from time to time - it's about being there 24/7 and committing to the relationship completely.
