Love Means

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No no no, hey
It was just the other day
Told me you were sorry, it was
Not so long ago
We talked about the same thing
Darling why?
Do lovers behave in such a way? Yes
Didn't you know that love means
Never to say that you're sorry?
How could you hurt the one you love
Just like you don't care?
No no in such a way
Just the other night
You told me that you love me
Whispered in my ear
Sweet words I long to hear
When you touch my spine, babe
Oh, it was Heaven divine
It's hard to tell myself that you're loving another man
Didn't you know that love means
Never to say that you're sorry?
How could you hurt the one you love
Just like you don't care?
No not in my book, no no way
Ooh baby, baby
Touch me one more time
Whisper in my ears
Your sweet lies
This will keep me going
Even for a moment
'Til you understand that it's not right
Didn't you know that love means
Never to say that you're sorry?
How could you hurt the one you love
Just like you don't care?
No not in my book, no no way
Ooh baby
Just the other day
Told me you were sorry, it was
Not so long ago
We talked about the same thing
Darling why?
Please tell me why
Do lovers behave in such a way?
Didn't you know that love means
Never to say that you're sorry?
How could you hurt the one you love
Just like you don't care?
No, no no not inside your way, no no
Don't you know that love means
Never to say that you're sorry?
Didn't you know that I'm telling you right now?
How could you hurt the one you love
Just like you don't care?
No, n-n-no not in my book, no no way
The song Love Means by Beres Hammond is a powerful reflection on the nature of love and relationships. The lyrics of the song reflect the singer's pain and disappointment in his lover's behavior. The song opens with the assertion that saying sorry is not enough to repair the damage caused by careless behavior. The singer then goes on to lament the fact that his lover is not behaving in a way that is consistent with the nature of true love. He questions why lovers behave in such a way and wonders why his lover is hurting him despite professing to love him.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the importance of never saying sorry in a relationship because it is a sign of careless behavior that can hurt the one you love. The singer emphasizes that it is impossible to hurt someone you love if you truly care for them. The second verse of the song continues the theme of the first, with the singer recalling a moment when his lover had professed her love for him. He emphasizes the fact that her actions contradict her words, and he struggles to come to terms with the fact that she may be cheating on him.
Overall, the message of the song is that true love is about much more than words. It requires a consistent and genuine effort to care for another person, and it involves taking responsibility for one's actions. The song is a poignant reflection on the challenges and complexities of love and relationships.
