Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
You think you've lost your love
Well, I saw her yesterday-yi-yay
It's you she's thinking of
And she told me what to say-yi-yay
She says she loves you
and you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you
and you know you should be glad
She said you hurt her so
She almost lost her mind
And now she says she knows
You're not the hurting kind
She says she loves you
and you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you
and you know you should be glad
Oo, she loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
With a love like that
You know you should be glad
You know it's up to you
I think it's only fair
Pride can hurt you too
Apologize to her
Because she loves you
and you know that can't be bad
Yes, she loves you
and you know you should be glad
Oo, she loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
With a love like that
You know you should be glad
With a love like that
you know you should be glad
With a love like that
you know you should be glad
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
"She Loves You" by The Beatles is a song that emphasizes love and the power it holds. The chorus repeats, "She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah," and tells the listener that the woman they thought they lost loves them back. The verses take on a conversation between the singer and the listener. The singer informs the listener that the woman has been hurt in the past but still loves them. The singer then encourages the listener to apologize to the woman because she loves them and they should be glad. The song is about the reassurance of love and how it is worth apologizing for wrongdoings.
The chorus is catchy and memorable, making it a classic Beatles love song. The lyrics also have a playful tone, incorporating "yi-yay" to create a lighthearted atmosphere. The verses describe the situation the listener is in, and the advice they should follow in order to rekindle a lost relationship. The song is perfect for its time because it encompasses teenage romance and the hope that love offers.
