In 2010, Lady Antebellum released its second album, Need You Now, which was led off by the five-week #1 hit "Need You Now."

Your Love
Charles Kelley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With a heart like thunder
It rattles my mind
Taking me to a world of wonder on the outskirts of time, yeah yeah
And a touch like lightning
Yeah, like falling rain
You're a storm worth fighting for
Like the man in the moon, I watch over you
Sticking to you like the morning dew
Like the birds need a song and the bees need the sun above
Come on, let's take a ride on a one-way train
Tell me, babe, that you maybe feel the same
Cause I don't wanna live without your love
Got soul like the wind
Blowing wherever you please
And you're making a grown man sway like a tree in the summer breeze
It's like you got the whole world in the palm of your hands
Every star shining in your eyes
For the first time in a long, long time
I can feel the sun rise
Like the man in the moon, I watch over you
Sticking to you like the morning dew
Like the birds need a song and the bees need the sun above
Come on, let's take a ride on a one-way train
Tell me, babe, that you maybe feel the same
Cause I don't wanna live without your love
Whoa, whoa
Like the man in the moon, I watch over you
Sticking to you like the morning dew
Like the birds need a song and the bees need the sun above
Come on, let's take a ride on a one-way train
Tell me, babe, that you maybe feel the same
Cause I don't wanna live without your love
All right
I don't wanna live without your love
I can't live without you, girl
Oh, yeah
Oh, whoa, I don't wanna live
No, I don't wanna live
Oh, oh, without you, girl
Oh, no, without you, girl
