Chuck D. & Will A. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me know how bad, how bad you want it
Tell me, you can't stay away
Love me with the love that's got no limits
Take it just as good as you can give it
Then give me more than I can take
Don't want just your body
When you're not around me, want thoughts about me taking up all your time
I want you in so deep, that you can't keep, can't keep your hands off of me
When I'm gone, say you'll die just a little (a little)
Love me in extremes, not the middle
'Till you're so damn gone, you can't go back
Love me, love me, love me, love me like that
Love me like that
Say you'd hate your life without me in it
Say you'd hate it more with every minute
Say you can't live without me
Let me know how much you love to hold me
Then find a million different ways to show me
Show me, that I'm all that you need
Don't want just your body
I wanna be the only thing on your mind
When you're not around me, want thoughts about me taking up all your time
I want you in so deep, that you can't keep, can't keep your hands off of me
When I'm gone, say you'll die just a little (a little)
Love me in extremes, not the middle
'Till you're so damn gone, you can't go back
Love me, love me, love me, love me like that
Love me like
You never loved nothing before
Then love me even more
Wake up with my name on your lips
'Cause you've never had nothing like this (hey)
When I'm gone, say you'll die just a little (oh, just a little)
Love me in extremes, not the middle (no, not the middle)
'Till you're so damn gone (so damn gone), you can't go back
Love me (love me), love me (love me), love me (love me), love me like that
Love me like that
Love me like that
Love me like that

Public Enemy cared more about teaching the truth over record sales. I'm glad I got to experience them live back in 88. Nobody put on a show like PE.
