If You Love Me
B.B.King With Van Morisson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I think I want her
I think I want her
But I've just lost her
They saying that time heals
So maybe I've got her
This is love is torture
My friends said I warned you
But I think I need it
I know that I'll mourn her
I think I am missing you I'm needing you I'm fiending you
All alone in this bed for two, this house for two, this meal for two
You left I am wanting you, I'm needing you, I'm grieving you
You know that I'm wanting you cas baby girl I dream of you
If you love me baby
You can show me maybe
If you know me baby
You know you drive me crazy
Your driving me insane
Just took two tabs of ecstasy and it's gone straight to the brain
I just wanted you right next to me but you just left me with pain
I think you just wanna fuck me cas
How you saying you love me
But you don't even trust me
But baby I don't trust myself
Cas lately I've been feeling how I've always felt
Always felt
You know that I don't love myself
But you don't understand all of the pain I've dealt
Pain I've dealt(with)
If you love me baby (don't tell me that you love me baby)
You can show me maybe (cas I don't wanna go crazy)
If you know me baby (baby i've been thinking lately)
You know you drive me crazy (that me and you would look good together)
Don't say you love me baby
Cas I don't need you lately
If you know me baby
You know you drive me crazy
I don't think I want her
I don't think I need her
And I've just lost her
They saying that time heals but babe it's not gonna
This is love was a torture
My friends said I warned you
But I don't need it
I know I won't mourn her
I don't think I want it no more
Cas the day you left me so sore
Don't tell me
Please don't tell me that you love me
I don't think I want it no more
Cas the day you left me so sore




I still think I need you baby
Please don't tell me that you love me

Obsessed with this song: a killer marriage of Van’s voice with BB’s magic guitar play
