Can't Get Enough
B.B. King With Mick Fleetwood And Stevie Nicks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Staring into the darkness
Afraid to turn on the light
It's got nothing to do with money
I just sure enough want you, honey
And I just can't rest
Till I get it right
Cause when the morning breeze
That's when you hear me call your name
That's when my love starts showing
It's getting serious, baby
End of the game
Cause I can't get enough of your love
I said I can't get enough of your love
I can't get enough of your love
I said I can't get enough of your love
You got me walking round in circles
Yeah I'm always pacing the floor
Cause this life I'm living without you
I just can't take no more
When the morning breeze starts blowing
I can hear you call my name
That's when my love starts showing
It's getting serious, baby
End of the game
Cause I can't get enough of your love
I said I can't get enough of your love
I can't get enough of your love
I said I can't get enough of your love
Cause when the morning breeze
Starts blowing
I can hear me call your name
That's when my love starts showing
It's getting serious, baby
End of the game
Cause I can't get enough of your love
I can't get enough of your love
I said I can't get enough of your love
I said I can't get enough of your love
I can't get enough of your love
In the song Can't Get Enough, the singer is expressing his passionate and desperate desire for the one he loves. He confesses to having been staring into the dark all night and walking around in circles, unable to sleep or find peace without the presence of his lover. The lyrics emphasize that this desire is not driven by any materialistic needs, but rather an overwhelming need to be with the one he loves. The relevance of the morning breeze indicating the beginning of a new day and perhaps new opportunities is juxtaposed with the singer's inability to let go of his constant need for his love interest.
The recurring chorus "I can't get enough of your love" highlights the intensity of the singer's feelings and the sense of insufficiency that he feels in their absence. The line "it's getting serious" suggests that the singer is on the verge of losing the one he loves, and the "end of the game" suggests that there are no more chances left to make amends. The song expresses the idea of true love being all-consuming, leaving no room for anything else in life once it has been experienced.
