Love ain't easy
Barry White Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
people say that nothing good comes easy
Tell me how many times do we sit amongst our friends
making up and breaking up just trying to get their lives together
As simple as the word love is its,
its not easy for two people to feel and touch and
hold and need each other, its how bad we really want it
Whatever the mind can conceive, its possible
We're so perfect for each other, still you have some doubts
You're holding back your love girl, just incase it don't workout
Girl we know love ain't easy
Something no one can deny
But we'll never know if we can make it
We won't know girl, not until we try(yeah)
We won't know until we try
You, you say love is a gamble, well nothing guarantee
But if we give our love a chance girl, girl I bet we will succeed
Girl we know love ain't easy
That something no one can deny
But we'll never know if we can make it
We won't know girl, not until we try(yeah)
We just won't know until we try
He's gonna blow for...
(saxphone medley)
We just don't know until we try
Let him blow some more for...
Love ain't easy
Love ain't easy
We just won't know until we try
Let him blow some more for...
Love ain't easy
Love ain't easy
We just won't know until we try
Girl we know love ain't easy
That something no one can deny
But we'll never know if we can make it
We won't know girl until we try(yeah)
We just won't know until we try
La La... La La
Love aint easy
It ain't easy
Love aint easy
It ain't easy
Love ain't easy
It ain't easy
Love ain't easy
It ain't easy

Love is far from easy.

Barry uses the saxophone interlude to accentuate the idea that love takes time and experimentation, and we won't know if we can make it until we've fully committed and tried our best.
La La... La La
Love aint easy
It ain't easy
Love aint easy
It ain't easy
Love ain't easy

The repetitive chorus reinforces that love is indeed not an easy feat, but one that's worth striving for.
